BOO!

(For politics, please scroll down)

The theme music for the 1983 science-fiction thriller The Dead Zone, based on the Stephen King novel of the same name, was composed by Michael Kamen (1948-2003), who, by the way, collaborated with Pink Floyd on the album The Wall.

Nick Bode, a commenter at YouTube, noted about the theme to The Dead Zone:
When Michael Kamen was composing this score, he'd play it over & over on his piano at home. His neighbor called & said "Please stop playing whatever that music is. You're giving my family nightmares." Epic.
Listen to this music. Do you agree with Mr. Bode?

  3. I dunno, just doesn't sound scary to me. I could imagine all sorts of movie video to go along with it, granted none of it like Julie Andrews dancing through a field with an umbrella.

  5. Sounds to me like an evil Peter and the Wolf somehow :-) At least it did in the beginning; I didn't listen long cuz I don't need to feel MORE scared in AMerica today!

    Good on you on the other stuff, AOW. xx
