Robert Folk - Beastmaster 2: Through the Portal of Time (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) - Music & Performance - CD

The character of Dar valiant warrior who can telepathically communicate with animals was introduced in Don Coscarelli s 1982 fantasy film THE BEASTMASTER. Very loosely based on concepts in Andre Norton s 1959 science fiction novel of the same name Coscarelli s film transposed Norton s extra-planetary adventure novel to a barbaric sword-and-sorcery world not far removed from that of CONAN THE BARBARIAN which had preceded BEASTMASTER into production and was released some months earlier in the same year launching a new but short-lived trend of heroic fantasy movies. While the film did not enjoy huge success at the box office it did develop quite a strong cult following thanks to frequent screenings on cable television and this prompted the filming of a sequel nearly a decade later helmed this time by Sylvio Tabet who served as executive producer on the original film. The story had little connection to the events of the first film and the tone is definitely much lighter. To compose the music for BEASTM
