I'd have to say either Charles Bernstein's Cujo or Pino Donaggio's Carrie. Each score is phenomenal at capturing both the frightening and poignant aspects of their film's main character.

For a fun "guilty pleasure," I'm partial towards Alan Silvestri's Cat's Eye.

I think Goldenthal's music for Pet Sematary is genuinely creepy and heart-wrenching. Shaiman did a fine job on Misery, too.

Two immediately come to mind:

CAT'S EYE by Alan Silvestri, which is one of his earliest all-electronic efforts, and Harry Sukman's epic score for SALEM'S LOT.

The Silvestri originally came out on LP, and the Sukman score only through questionable cd sources.

Lots of goodness here. Kamen's DEAD ZONE, Donaggio's CARRIE, Goldenthal's PET SEMETARY, are all personal favorites...

THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (Thomas Newman) is a favorite of mine, as is THE DEAD ZONE (Michael Kamen).

I've always liked Pino Donaggio's Carrie but I have to say, the songs make me cringe.

No one has mentioned The Stand (W.G. "Snuffy" Walden), I have a copy, haven't listened to it yet. What's the verdict from those who have?

One of my favourites has to be Danny Elfman's score for "Dolores Claiborne" - beautiful, dark, mysterious and sad. It has some gorgeous string work. I remember, back in the day, it was a real eye opener for me in terms of how I perceived Elfman, and quite a change of pace from the many 'superhero' assignments he'd tackled in wake of Batman - Darkman and Dick Tracy etc.
