Quartet Records presents a remastered CD reissue of the long-out-of-print soundtrack by Ennio Morricone for the 1983
police thriller COPKILLER (aka ORDER OF DEATH).
Co-produced between Italy, France and the U.S., and directed by longtime Morricone collaborator Roberto Faenza, the
film stars Johnny Rotten (famous punk-star from the group Sex Pistols), Harvey Keitel and Nicole Garcia. The plot is about
a pair of corrupt cops spending their illegal cash on an uptown New York City apartment.
Morricone’s score comes from the composer’s fertile period of poliziotteschi thrillers and his collaborations with Henri
Verneuil in Belmondo’s French polars in the early 1980s. The music features the psychedelic, percussion-heavy and often
ostinato-based cues that Morricone typically reserved for the steamy chaos of his crime-film scores.
General Music released the score on LP in France and Germany in 1983, and GDM on CD in 2002. This new edition
contains the same program, produced by Claudio Fuiano and Dániel Winkler, rebuilt and remastered by Chris Malone
from the first-generation stereo master tapes. The package includes a richly illustrated booklet with in-depth liner notes by
Daniel Schweiger discussing the film and the score.
