3.0 out of 5 stars Original music...YES!, September 29, 2000

This CD is not a cheap remake of horror movie music. These are the original recordings from the movie soundtracks. The recordings are top notch! Since I was looking for scary sound effects for an introduction...it was perfect! As far as the listenability of the disc goes...it is not something to put in your CD changer at a party. The Alien soundtracks are more like weird noise than music (not to say they aren't cool).

Even though I rarely buy compilation albums I was intrigued enough to check this one out due to the quality and variety of the various artists represented. It has songs from a lot of my favorite horror films and that was a plus. It starts out with a bang and delivers all the way through. I know that this disc will be getting a workout on October 31st and even before that as it also has just a great easy listening quality to it when I put it on for background music. Usually I am somewhat disappointed when listening to compilations but this one is solid all the way through.

This album is a classy blend of scary emotions and somber thoughts. I enjoyed it immensely!
