Welcome, brave listeners, to a sonic quest and one of the most gloriously bold fantasy scores ever committed to film. Today, we’re diving into Krull—where the glaive flies, the stakes are sky-high, and the music by James Horner doesn’t just accompany the adventure, it practically rides the Firemares straight through it. But fear not, I won’t be venturing into the Black Fortress alone—I’m joined by Will Welch, Curator of The Wonderful World Of Film Music, to help navigate Horner’s sweeping, swashbuckling soundscape. Together, we’ll Krull over every cue, uncover hidden gems, and celebrate a score that proves fantasy films don’t just need heroes—they need music that’s truly out of this world.

This week we’re striding through some bloody huge wooden gates to dig deeply into a score by the maestro himself, John Williams. From the electric spark of the “Opening Titles” to the soaring “main theme” wonder rises higher than a brachiosaurus on its hind legs—majestic, monumental, and most definitely ‘tricera-top’ tier. But don’t get too comfy in the visitor center: “Incident at Isla Nublar” snaps at our heels, turning calm into chaos faster than you can say “clever girl.”

And joining me to dodge a “Raptor Attack,” steal embryos and dangle over disaster in “High Wire Stunts.” is returning guest Tom Fleming Bond and sci-fi and fantasy film fan extraordinaire who can be found on various socials as @tomyflemba. But is John Williams score for Jurassic Park a Tyrannosaur or a Doyathinky saurus? There’s only one way to find out; let’s dive in!

For this episode we’re crossing the streams between cinema and soundtracks to bust open the music behind the 1984 classic, Ghostbusters. And joining me to discuss the synth-haunted grooves of Ray Parker Jr.’s chart-topping theme to the delightfully eerie cues by Elmer Bernstein, is returning guest Gillian McShane and together we’ll be trapping every note, riff, and ghostly groove in our audio containment unit. So grab your proton packs, keep your reverb set to “supernatural,” and remember: when the bassline goes bump in the night… we’re the ones you’re gonna call!
