‘The Monkey’ Soundtrack Pressed on Vinyl with Lenticular Artwork

The Monkey began as a Stephen King short story accompanying a magazine and was later published in a book, then became an Osgood Perkins movie, and now it’s coming to vinyl.

Mutant is pressing the film’s soundtrack on “Monkey Splatter” colored vinyl, limited to 1,000.

Composed by Edo Van Breemen (Afflicted, Air), the LP is housed in a lenticular sleeve with a printed outer O-card.

“The score is as playful as the movie itself, whimsical when it needs to be, but also managing to be terrifying and tense,” Mutant writes.

Due out on June 21, the album costs $40. A non-lenticular eco vinyl edition is also available for $35.

“Mr. King’s Monkey haunted our process for the entire duration of post-production on this film, while Mr. Perkins possessed us to mutilate sounds and arrangements in a manner beyond our control,” said Van Breemen. “We hope you enjoy this record, and if not… shit, man, that sucks.”

When twin brothers find a mysterious wind-up monkey, a series of outrageous deaths tear their family apart. 25 years later, the monkey begins a new killing spree forcing the estranged brothers to confront the cursed toy.

The Monkey is in theaters now via Neon.
