Ok I probably listen to the soundtracks from my favorite movies more than I listen to "regular" music. i have a ton of them from everything from the Universal classics, Hammer,Godzilla,Gamera and Ultraman,giant robot anime shows,Dark Shadows,James Bond,etc,etc! My favorite composers are Akira Ifukube(of Godzilla fame) Hans J Salter from universal and James Bernard of Hammer. My playlist on the computer is loaded with these things.

Good call, RK. I also enjoy the John Williams score for Dracula (1979), & the Queen score for Flash Gordon (1980).

The soundtrack for The gates of hell
the soundtrack for The european version of Dawn of the dead (zombi)  Goblin rules!!!!
The soundtrack for Lucio Fulci 's  Zombie 2

Have to mention Carpenter's Halloween soundtrack.  When I first got it, it was summer and I put it on the record player and set phasers to loud.

All great soundtracks! I love Goblin and the Fabio Fabrizzi (spelling?) scores from Fulci's movies, and Carpenter's Halloween score is a masterpiece!
