Quintus 5,399 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I've always loved that bit. It's almost religious in feel.Now that you say it, I can imagine it playing as the Burning Bush speaks to Moses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,715 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 The Fortress of Solitude from Superman is something I consider to be very haunting, especially the opening with the Krypton and the Crystal themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,715 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 "Remembering Petticoat Lane" from JPJurassic Park is so full of these beautiful incidental melodies that trump most composers' main themes. Remembering Petticoat Lane is one of those masterful effortless pieces that conveys so many things at once. Plus it is extremely haunting as well.

Remembering Petticoat Lane is one of those masterful effortless pieces that conveys so many things at once. Plus it is extremely haunting as well.Indeed. Especially 1:51-2:16 (the bit that's tracked into the scene where Hammond stares one last time into the island before getting in the helicopter). Probably my favourite 15 seconds of the entire score.

Bespin 8,484 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 There are three themes from Star Wars I keep whistling over the years, because they are really moving and they litteraly haunt me :-)Binary Sunset from ANH, The Finale from ESB, and Across the Stars.The Death of Yoda and The Final Duel from ROTJ are great shivers cues too...

King Mark 3,631 Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 There's this little passage of music in Return of the Jedi, when Vader walks down the ramp of his shuttle at the beginning, right after the loud statement of the Imperial March Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incanus 5,715 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I love how forlorn, lonely and indeed haunting that piece is. It thematically represents Nixon's darkness and sense of loneliness throughout the film but this last statement is both haunting and chilling in its emotional isolation. There is a certain inevitable, dispassionate, fateful quality to this piece, how the piano notes just slowly trickle down, musically illustrating the moment when Nixon truly feels that everything is at an end and darkness comes. But Williams does it with such eerie subtle means.Saying the Rosary from Sleepers, especially the choral passages. Eerie, liturgical and haunting.

Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 This isn't the sort of piece most people most people are mentioning, but I get chills down my spine every time I hear the choir enter at the beginning of "Battle of the Heroes."

Hlao-roo 389 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 What is some more light-hearted fare by Williams that might be deemed "haunting"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicist 4,643 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I always found this slightly off-kilter: Also,the cue AMONG TE CLOUDS from ALWAYS has a rather haunting atmosphere in its second half from 05:00 with that gripping religioso rising of the strings and the little flute trills underneath.If only the whole score was like that.
