La-La Land Records, Columbia Pictures and Sony Music proudly present a remastered and expanded 2-CD limited edition re-issue of renowned composer Michael Kamen’s (LETHAL WEAPON 1-4, DIE HARD, X-MEN) original motion picture score to the 1993 big screen, action-comedy epic LAST ACTION HERO, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and directed by John McTiernan.

Both a broad send-up and a legit celebration of high-octane action cinema blockbusters, LAST ACTION HERO called upon legendary composer Michael Kamen to provide yet another classic action score in his grand and unique fashion. The maestro behind the iconic LETHAL WEAPON and DIE HARD franchises (not to mention ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES, THE LAST BOY SCOUT, LICENCE TO KILL and more) proved to be the perfect pitch choice and LAST ACTION HERO is a notable work in Kamen’s canon – a dynamite, thematic fusion of classic orchestra and driving rock riffs.

Produced by Neil S. Bulk and mastered by Doug Schwartz from original digital stereo mixes, this deluxe, remastered release is greatly expanded beyond the original 1993 score album, featuring the Score Presentation spread across two CDs. Disc Two also houses the remastered 1993 score album, as well as additional music. Limited to 3000 units, the release boasts exclusive, in-depth liner notes by writer Al Kaplan, including new comments from the film’s director, John McTiernan and score orchestrators William Ross and Michael McCuistion. The blockbuster art direction is by Dan Goldwasser.
