Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 For me, the first two Harry Potter scores are very "Novembery" to me while the third one is very "springy". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 4,074 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I'm a bit of a Halloween nut. In addition to a massive collection of Halloween novelty music, I enjoy the following scores immensely:CreepshowSalem's LotSleepy HollowFriday the 13thBride of FrankensteinDracula (Williams)The OmenHalloween The FogBram Stoker's DraculaAnd lots and lots of Hammer Film music.For whatever reason, I think of Poltergeist as a Summer movie, and this the score isn't right for Halloween in NY.I was surprised at how much I love the score for Salem's Lot. It just hits all the right creepy beats, and is very retro, yet still unnerving. A lot of horror music runs the risk of becoming grating or unlistenable. Salem's Lot never wears out its welcome.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I tend to feel like listening to spooky scores when it's not Halloween for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbellamy 6,272 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 For me, the first two Harry Potter scores are very "Novembery" to me while the third one is very "springy".Well, the first two were released in November and the soundtrack album for the third in May. And lol KM, I came here to say that about Elfman. Probably more than half of his output works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,669 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Sleepy Hollow would be the closest I have.However, I hate Halloween so my regular listening was uninterrupted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Presently listening to the old Varese Nightmare on Elm Street 1 and 2 CD. I reckon Young's score is the best in the series. I'd love a complete version someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
