Oh and I TOTALLY forgot about You're Next. Bad film but the 80's Argento-ish scores were awesome. |

Does anyone else fancy the scores for Children of the Corn besides me? Final Sacrifice was fine too, but I can't comment on the other sequels. |
 Can't you see it? The effects of cinema violence on society? | |

Anyhthing by John Carpenter and Alan Howarth like : Assault on Precinct 13 Halloween Halloween 2 Halloween 3 The Fog Christine etc..... Then there's ripoffs of Halloween that are great like: Offerings - 1989 Final Exam - 1981 He Knows You're Alone |

Everybody's listed the classics (Halloween, Carrie, et cetera), so I'll offer two films from this year, It Follows and #HORROR. The former probably had the most chilling score I've heard in a horror film since the "Hello Zepp" theme from Saw, and it was a huge part of why that film scared me and stayed with me like it did. As for the latter, despite it being a very uneven film otherwise, the score was without a doubt one of the best things about it, and did much of the heavy lifting in building a creepy atmosphere. |

Ravenous had a rather interesting score, I thought. Quirky and offbeat, like the movie itself. |

The Mothman Prophecies had a very creepy, ambient score to it. |

Lots of great choices here. Of the more recent posts, I completely agree that Ravenous and The Mothman Prophecies are exceptional scores. Just watched MP, as a matter of fact. I'd like to add Frizzi's score for Lucio Fulci's Zombie. Unforgettable, and at times, deliciously unnerving. A few others that spring to mind.. Phantasm High Tension Scanners |

Mothman Prophecies introduced me to my favorite band, Low, when I was a kid. They sang that song "Half Light" that plays at the end, for which they collaborated with tomandandy. |

the Texas Chainsaw Massacre(1974) I really enjoy the rustic yet industrial soundtrack. It's interesting that the film doesn't really have a soundtrack, instead it has sparse sound effects that articulate the atmosphere. The distant, clinking metallic objects and weird synth noise really drive the film into even more extreme territory. It seems very ahead of its time. I can't imagine how audiences would have reacted to that type of sound back in the day, though I'm sure they were paying more attention to the film haha. I hope one day the film is recognized as an early contribution to the genre of Industrial Music, if not the very origin of it! the Wicker Man(1973) Certainly not a traditional horror film score, but Paul Giovanni's folk songs with a strong pagan undertone really set the mood for the remoteness of Summerisle. Only draw back is the generic rock instrumentals that show up throughout the end - they're really outta place. I can't even count how many times I've listened to OST, though. A Cold Night's Death(1973) Very restrained and minimalist synthesizer drones, beeps, and melodies. Compliments the cold, paranoid descent into madness of the film really well! |
