Dragon's Domain Records presents the world premiere soundtrack release of PENTATHLON , featuring music composed by David Spear for the 1994 action film directed by Bruce Malmuth (NIGHTHAWKS, HARD TO KILL), written by William Stadiem, Gary T. McDonald and Malmuth, starring Dolph Lundgren, David Soul, Renée Coleman, Roger E. Mosley, Daniel Riordan and Philip Bruns. Released in 1994, PENTATHLON tells the story of Eric Brogar (Lundgren), an Olympic athlete born in East Germany before the Berlin Wall fell, who dreams of a better life. Brogar has been training for the Pentathlon, a combination of five sporting events (shooting, swimming, fencing, horse-back riding and cross-country running), first devised by Pierre de Coubertin, the man responsible for creating the modern version of the Olympics. de Coubertin believed these skills were essential training for soldiers in the 19th century. Now, competing in the Pentathlon at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, Eric wins the Gold Medal and uses the opportunity to escape from his Stasi secret police minders at the airport. Despite being shot in the leg, Brogar manages to reach the bus of the United States team and request asylum.
