I had an early night last night and caught Children Of The Corn on AMC. The film score always fucked with me as a kid. Just about any score for a horror film that has a choir full of children usually freaks me out.

It's not a horror per se, but the Requiem for a Dream soundtrack really drives the awfulness home.

My older brother's Suspira soundtrack used to freak me out when I played it on my little Fisher-Price turntable back in the early '70's.

I thought this was gonna be a thread about metacritic . . . I'm an idiot. I will say that the Requiem soundtrack annoys me more than anything else. Over and over and over; just makes me want to grind my teeth.

It's not a film score, but when I was a kid there was a local channel that ran a late-nite horror movie show called "Dimension 16". The music for that thing can still send a shiver up my spine.

There is this obscure horror film from the late 70s that freaked me out as a kid, called 'Tourist Trap', it had these weird breathy voices sneaking in over this scary music. It's hard to qualify the sound but whenever I hear a something similar I always think of that movie. Whoever scored it did their job well.

Never saw Requiem, but heard from enough people that it is something to behold.

The Exorcist

I can still remember being unable to sleep whenever ads for the film came on TV with "Tubular Bells" wafting in from the living room as I hid under my sheets.

I can't believe no one has said The Shining yet.

I mean the music that is playing in the beginning as the camera follows the car into the mountains completely sets the tone for the whole movie.

The only term for this music is "unsettling".

Rosemary's Baby is also kind of creepy.

I was hoping to be the first to throw out Goblin but "That damn Spoon" beat me to it. I've got a compilation of songs from all their horror flic scores. Gotta love throwing on some Goblin when company comes over. Especially "Suspiria (Main Title)". Great stuff. Great movie by the way.

Hardware. Anyone ever see this movie? It's about some robots that get smart, sort of like iRobot, but completely science fiction and a thriller and creepy.

The Eyes Wide Shut soundtrack is pretty unsettling. Like Romanian weirdness or something.
