What about Lalo Schifrin's score for the 1979 Amityville Horror? Utilizing a children's choir to represent playful innocence in contrast to the evil in the house. And the music also served as a character itself. It also won an Academy Award for best original motion picture score. This should have gotten at least an honorable mention-it is a far superior score than some of the others you mentioned and deserves its place as a truly scary masterpiece.

One horror movie that used the soundtrack to great effect was John Carpenter's "Prince of Darkness." As things eerier and more threatening, a slow bass pulse built and built. It was low and slow enough that you barely heard it--but you FELT it, and subconsciously it made you feel progressively more uneasy. When I first saw that movie, I couldn't figure out what made it feel so freaky (the movie itself really wasn't all THAT scary) and it wasn't until I paid closer attention to the music that I figured it out.

I think the destructive drum smashes in Stranger Things, when the Demargorgon is around, are far more horror-like than the synth intro. The dread is compounded by this overtly loud and impatient drumming - which has been taken further and to great effect by horror franchises like The Conjuring. Subtlety has been overwrought by thunderous obviousness in sound in moments where there is almost nothing to see visually. I personally love that in modern horror music.

I don't think I've ever been scared by the music in a horror film. In many, it's a tiresome distraction at best. I don't need to be told 'this is scary!' by shrieking violins. I can only think of two instances in which the score enhanced the film: John Carpenter's 'The Thing', and Ridley Scott's 'Alien'. In both films, the music worked almost subliminally by setting a mood, rather than by double-underlining particular moments.

Horror films are usually not spooky because they're over the top, spookiness requires subtle ambiguity, the reason ghost stories are usually spooky is because you hardly ever see the ghost, it's a slow onset suspense. Like how the Exorcist theme 'Tubular Bells' is spooky and the movie is until the girl is possessed and than it's almost comedic. The slow drawn out pitch bends in the original Unsolved Mysteries theme is another good example of actually spooky music. "Horror", especially modern jump scare, is usually unsophisticated trash and not spooky. The jump scare has become overdone and cheap. kzitem.info/news/bejne/2mOas52jgqRio44 kzitem.info/news/bejne/pJuwrHl6kKaZYJg kzitem.info/news/bejne/jpqdz5eNapugg2U kzitem.info/news/bejne/uI6p2HxpnKd1gHY
