"The Cold Eyes of Fear" is a 1971 thriller film directed by Enzo G. Castellari (director of "That damned armored train", one of Quentin Tarantino's absolute favorites), with the participation of an international cast of actors including Frank Wolff, Fernando Rey, Julian Mateos and Karin Schubert.

Set almost exclusively inside a villa where a kidnapping takes place, the film makes use of one of the darkest and most chilling soundtracks signed by Ennio Morricone, in which the melody is practically absent, in favor of icy and claustrophobic atmospheres. As performers, directed by Bruno Nicolai, we find an ensemble of which Morricone himself was a member, the Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, perfect in the interpretation of dissonant and avant-garde sounds.

This soundtrack in the less 'free' episodes and in which the groove is the master recalls the jazz-rock and fusion of the revolutionary Miles Davis at the turn of the 60s and 70s; Remained unreleased for almost 30 years and still constantly sought after by collectors, it is reissued here in a new edition on transparent pink vinyl with remastered audio.
