John Carpenter: Assault on Precinct 13

John Carpenter: Assault on Precinct 13 Original Soundtrack (bootleg version)
Released: Who knows? After all, it’s a bootleg; 2003 (Record Makers)

On the back cover of the Record Makers version of the Assault on Precinct 13 soundtrack director/writer/composer John Carpenter claims he got the idea for the film’s title track from a Led Zeppelin song. Wherever he got it doesn’t matter – it’s an infectious track that’ll get stuck in your head for days. The film itself is pretty good low-budget fare and demonstrates that Carpenter can make something great with very little money. The film also features a child being gunned down by gang members.

Here is the opening theme from Assault on Precinct 13
