Leave it to Rhino Records to come up with the best party music for Halloween rave-ups. In contrast to New Wave Halloween, this set of 10 tunes is aimed squarely at the family listening environment. "Monster Mash," sung by Bobby Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers, is a hoot decades after its origin. And Screamin' Jay Hawkins's "I Put a Spell on You" is aptly eerie, if not a tad funny in this setting--considering that "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" comes after and the Addams Family theme comes before. And lest you think this set of tunes is mired in the depths of Halloween tunes from generations ago, it also has "Ghostbusters"--which reeks of datedness anywhere but here. --Andrew Bartlett

 Dinner with Drac, 2006-11-19
Mainly a collection of vintage rock'n'roll which Ace specialize in but this is a sub genre which had its roots in such as Screammin' Jay Hawkins and John Zacherle-whose Dinner With Drac is on one of the Golden Age series.
The real classic here is Bobby Boris Pickett's Monster Mash and the CD starts off with an airshot of Pickett's speaking voice.It topped the charts in 1962 and finally made it to the U K in 1974.
Informative sleeve notes tell you who all these mostly failed recording artists were and the title is brilliant

 Music for the Monsters - Scary Music, 2004-03-09
There's always a need for "monster music" compilation, especially when the tracks are compiled from the greatest horror fantasy movies ever made. In the nutshell, that's the rise and fall of this CD.There are included some of the most famous horror themes like Tubular Bells from the Exorcist, the unforgettable Ghostbusters theme, and so on. But on the other hand - or should I say "on the Other Side" - there are themes from notoriously poor flicks as well. The movies like The attack of the Killer Tomatoes and The Haunting shouldn't even be mentioned amongst the classic motion pictures. And where are the classic themes from movies like Halloween and Friday the 13th? They should be definitely included instead of B-class scores. As such this compilation is far too scattered to work properly. Still, this CD has its uses. If you're a fan of Danny Elfman's music (like me) and you don't want to buy the whole soundtracks, this compilation will serve you well.

A brilliant, original album for kids, 2007-10-11
I bought this album for my kids last year and they liked it so much they only stopped playing it a few months ago! As well as imaginative interpretations of Halloween classics like 'Monster Mash' and 'Ghostbusters' sung by witches and ghouls, the album also features two fantastic original compositions called 'Spooky Boogie' and 'Hello Halloween', which my kids absolutely love. To top it all off there's a scary story and 20 minutes of spooky sound effects, which are great as background atmosphere for party games. Brilliant value!

Halloween Sound Effects, 2004-01-03
This type of cd is quite a specialist thing, there are not many people out there who want a disk full of sound effects unless they have specific use for them, i myself am a practising all be it amatueur musician (hopefully proffesional one day) so for me a very valuable tool. Most of the samples are good, although the alien type samples seem a little miss-placed for a collection of horror sound effects and really should'nt be in there at all. These sound effects for me will only come to life once woven into my very heavy metal music which will give the music a new level of horror and ambience

Send a chill down your spine while you enjoy a glass of wine, 2003-11-06
The pieces selected in the CD are highly evoking, being soundracks from very popular films. As the music of the first theme invaded the room, we all shared identical expressions of uneasiness and nervous smiles. If that is the atmosphere you are trying to create, this is your music.
