If feels a little too soon for a Best Horror Film tourney, but how about a Best Horror Music Tourney as we slide into Halloween?
If enough folks want to do it, I'd see it going like everyone pick their fav 5 horror music pieces/songs, and we'd go right into our classic tourney format.
It wouldn't be soundtracks, it would be individual music tracks. Which would typically be the film theme, but I think we should include any horror song as well.
So which would you rather?
1. We could keep it strictly to music in horror film...
2. or we could open it up to any 'horror' music or song, that would include all of: the 'Carpenter's Halloween Theme', 'The Monster Mash' and 'Modest Mussorgsky - A Night on the Bare Mountain'.
What ya think?

I would probably go for strictly music from horror films. And it would be our personal favorites, not what we think would be the right ones ?

OK, a vote for horror film music only: Bloof
Well, voting for 'what's the best', as opposed to 'what's your favorite' is tricky business! lol
I don't think it makes any difference really. When peeps pick their 5 selections, there's no reason not to pick a favorite(s). Especially with music, ya know?... like how often would someone say, "This is my favorite horror movie theme, but I really think it's sucky music"? Not often. I mean, the fav is probably good in some way, or it wouldn't be a favorite, right?
But when voting, I think it's kinda the same as always... we're doing this for HDC, so we'd ask voters to pick the best -- and they can decide what that is for themselves. It's subjective and 'unpoliceable' so to speak. If a voter picks a fav, and the other voters thinks it sucks, that's the way it goes. Not a problem.
Only one response so far...

I would think music in horror films would be easier. Although I am kind of curious what other stuff people might come up with. I think of Night on Bare Mountain as the Fantasia soundtrack. There was that Gunship music video with the horror cameos that I posted about a while ago too. Sadly it won't show up anymore unless you sign in or save it through another site. It wasn't that adult.

I would be ok with both if possible so you could get horror music, songs, videos. When I saw the topic my first thoughts went to some of the songs in Friday the 13th. But also that old Jacksons Torture video that freaked me out as a kid. I didn't even want to touch any kind of slime.

Three for music in Horror film only. Bloof, Hammer, Immortal
I actually had never heard Dark All Day before. Nice sax! Hadn't heard Torture before either. Not sure how I missed it. I don't recall hearing that on the radio, but I was a big fan of Jackson's State of Shock.
If we get more participants, although we might keep to music in Horror films, I don't think we have to be too strict on horror film classification... like I think the opening theme of Se7en is a classic horror theme, but IMDB will classify the film as Crime Drama, or Godzilla being Sci-fi Fantasy.

You know that's the sax guy from Lost Boys.

I probably saw Torture on MTV or VH1 back in the day. I don't think I ever flipped radio channels a lot. But they had a lot of odd music videos then. It was like videos all the time from what I remember. Then it started to change to popularity shows.

You know when I saw Lost Boys originally, I didn't know the director was gay. So a muscle guy playing sax didn't mean anything odd. There is a good chance I didn't know what gay even meant back then. But when Arnold Schwarzenegger once joked about liking oiled up men, I started to get some of the inside meanings.
Also, I didn't know that Clive Barker was gay until fairly recently. Now the title Midnight Meat Train takes on a whole different meaning.
Is the facebook for this site more active?

Interesting... I Still Believe was written by The Call. Saxophonist Tim Cappello usually preforms shirtless and oiled up, probably to get the ladies. So the director didn't need to coach him to do that, but might have appreciated it.
And no, HDC isn't more active on FB, but there's some things announced there.

OK, guess I'll throw in my 5...at first had to think which 5 have stuck with Me. Then thought of several more::shocked:: For now, here they are.
1-PSYCHO (1960). Groundbreaking and still frightening Bernard Herrman score.
2-NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968). While it's mostly library music and taken from other films (Two being TEENAGERS FROM OUTER SPACE and THE HIDEOUS SUN DEMON), feel it's effectively used.
3-HORROR OF DRACULA (1958). Love the bombastic music during the opening credits...
4-FRIGHT NIGHT (1985). The song "Come To Me" when Jerry initiates Amy
5-THE THING (1982). So spare and so creepy!

Thanks, Dwight! We're doing specific tracks of soundtracks so people can easily take a listen to a piece during the tourney.
Which tracks did you want?
For Pyscho most peeps either mean The Flight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Md37XmjlB00&list=PLf10VA90zVAqvg9IFIgW5YMrYUoJfS8RN&index=5
or Murder (the shower). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P119HeK3COQ&list=PLf10VA90zVAqvg9IFIgW5YMrYUoJfS8RN&index=15
For NOTLD most peeps mean Funeral Pyre https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHgwMlwefn8&list=PLdAnHsDWhpsShobrSO31PZovw9eEIpnCl&index=15
or Main Title: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxGAmYZHseY&list=PLdAnHsDWhpsShobrSO31PZovw9eEIpnCl&index=1
For Dracula it's probably: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZ0KW6IqjxI
Come To Me from Fight Night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bp8ltiqnzc
And for The Thing I think "Antarctica, Winter" is the classic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZaSYkBpzvA&list=PLohYzz4btpaSRpyIibpGVmaIFfzzSSw8H&index=4

You're right, Sculpt..I should have been more specific ::embarrassment::...I was thinking about whole soundtracks. Well, here We go!
1-PSYCHO...Definitely "The Murder"..so terrifying. Listen to that scene without the music and even more creepy, like a Snuff film (Not that I've ever seen one)
2-NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD- Like the whole soundtrack (especially the "Funeral Pyre"), but the one I think has the most impact is "Final Advance", right after The Sheriff mentions "They're Dead...They're all Messed Up". The reverb is extremely effective. (In the film, it's when the Group is watching TV and the lights go out).
3-HORROR OF DRACULA-Opening score with the credits is what I was thinking of.
FRIGHT NIGHT-This was also what I was thinking. The version with vocals is pretty good also.
THE THING-The opening score nails it! Love those simple but effective Bass notes.

Yes, I'm having participants go ahead and list their 5 tracks here. It's best if people can just grab their 5 links from youtube to be precise. Youtube has separate tracks for every track on a soundtrack. So you can take a listen and pick the ones you really mean.
I'm pretty busy with a lot of things, but we can collect everyones tracks here for the next few weeks.

It can be a song; just has to be on a horror film soundtrack. Doesn't have to be instrumental, it can be a singing song, just have to verify it's on the film soundtrack. A singing song can be a good horror film track.
And again, we want single tracks, not an entire soundtrack.
And we're not going to be super strict on defining horror film, just horror film in general.

Yes, from What Keeps you Alive -- Love Beethoven's Symphony No 7, 2nd movement "Allegretto" (moderately quick). Has been featured in many films, and at the time I hear it, I never seem to remember the composer/symph number.
That great theme is essentially 1st part of the 9:30 piece; 0-3:34 in that track.

There are a bunch of soundtracks and in movie horror songs that I own or have saved and I selected from those for the most part. It's probably not a true top 5 right now as I need to think a bit more about other horror movie soundtracks and movies that I don't own yet. Plus I'm terrible with top lists.
I listen to horror songs a lot even though I tend not to like lyrical music that much. They are usually songs I pick up in the background and search for because they seem to have catchy tunes. Movies like The Terminator and Night of the Creeps have tons of them. They put me in the movie without having the movie on in the background. In many ways it's thanks to the old horror crypt music site that was shut down because he put together the complete soundtracks with songs and that doesn't seem to happen on CD releases these days.
My list for now. Not in order.
1. The Darkest Side of the Night from Friday the 13th Part 8
Someone on horrordvds called it a cheesy 80s song but I love it because of that. Especially the last minute. I love how they use it both at the beginning of the movie and on the radio in the boat. Plus it's at the end movie credits.

2. Magic in Your Eyes from Friday the 13th Part 7
I never really liked Part 7 until fairly recently. It took a while to like the feel of the movie. This song I picked up in the background probably helped. Also, because of the pretty blonde girl as well even though she's a major b word. But it's a good song for hanging out in the woods and looking for a pretty girl sort of thing.

3. Passage to Normal from Night of the Living Dead 1990
I think most people leave the theater when the movie ends and don't watch the credits. I tend to listen to the credits music. I caught Night of the Living Dead 1990 on late night TV by surprise when I was young. I didn't know it was a remake. It might be the first zombie movie I ever saw. And I love that last shot of Barbara.
I guess back then they played all the credits on TV or I saw this on an early cable channel. I can't remember. But it's one of those nostalgia things that sticks. Late at night, people trapped in a house, zombies. A what did I just watch and what is possible moment for me. I always listen to this track.
The credits part starts at 1:05

4. Useless Talent #32 from Grindhouse Planet Terror
I love this because it's the actress singing. I love it when an actor or actress does more than just act in a movie. I picked this up in the background during the beginning of the movie in the stripclub dressing sequence. The song continues in various forms in the movie but this is the first instance of it and probably my favorite.

5. Breather from Silent Hill
I like the Silent Hill movie probably far more than most. It's a moody and beautiful looking horror movie. This song is also supposed to be used in the game but I heard it in the movie first. The singer is also a actress which is cool. The whole credits music is really good but it's only one pick.

Not that I've listened to a lot of whole sountracks, but I know what you mean, as I most certainly have listened to entire symphonies and ballets straight through, like Nutcracker, Sawn Lake, Sleeping Beauty, etc.
For the tourney the tracks are important because participants are going to have to compare two things, and listening to some or all of two tracks is easy enough. They won't even have to have seen the films.
But even if they have seen the films, it's really hard for most people to recall the entire soundtrack. Playing a track is a great reminder.

This forum used to be really active. Seems like we can't even get that many for this tournament anymore.

Nice choices! We are doing specific tracks as opposed to entire soundtracks so people can listen to the options. At youtube you can search a movie soundtrack and it'll list all the tracks. You can post the links of the tracks here.

1. NOTLD 'eerie heavy echo'
this is a very suspense building track, a classic

2. "Hope drowns" from silent hill, surreal but beautiful, very mysterious sounds i love the birds chirping too

3. my pick from Mandy is "mandy love theme" i really liked all the haunting music from this soundtrack, and also that psych hippie song by jeremiah sand "amulet of the weeping maze''....anyone else agree this movie should be/seems like a video game?

4.phantasm theme, classic music from one of my favorites, long live the tall man

5. cannibal holocaust, weird music that sounds too happy to belong to such gruesome images, but something scary about it
