Rick Shaffer and Bruce Cohen, a/k/a The Reds®, composed and performed the score of "MANHUNTER." The soundtrack album was released in limited quantities in 1986 on MCA Records (#6182), but the film's failure at the box office prevented a release on the then new compact disc format. Soon afterwards, the 12" record and audio cassette were deleted making them highly sought after by fans of the film. Currently, the film is a cult classic and can be viewed almost daily on various cable channels all over the world, while the soundtrack has become a huge collectors item. The original 1986 release was on MCA Record, and re-released on Intrada Records in 2010.
