I love many sountracks In horror films but my favourite was La Caccia Goblin from Dawn of the dead original.

Dawn of the Dead (78)
Carrie
Dressed to Kill
Full Circle
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (78)
The Omen (original)
The Redeemer

Jaws
The Omen
Alien
Mark Of The Devil
Twisted Nerve

I like some of Donaggio's scores too, Angel. Don't Look Now, Piranha and The Howling are also worth checking out.

Hard to believe now but Ortolani also scored the Shirley MacLaine compo film The Yellow Rolls Royce back in the 60's, as well as the brilliantly funky scores to The Biggest Bundle Of Them All (great album cover) and the Swinging London The Bliss Of Mrs Blossom (another MacLaine movie).

His score to Mondo Cane is a thing of beauty (unlike the film) and the theme tune, which later became the classic lounge song More, is absolutely amazing. Check out Danny Williams's outstanding version of it.

Cannibal holocaust Is a brilliant soundtrack.

My Top 10 fave horror movie soundtracks (in no particular order):

1) Tenebrae
2) Cannibal Holocaust
3) Halloween (original and remake)
4) The Omen (original)
5) Maniac
6) A Nightmare on Elm Street
7) Last House on the Left
8) The Amityville Horror (original)
9) The Slayer
10) Hellraiser

Torso
Case of the Scorpions Tail
Susperia
Zombie Flesh Eaters
The Beyond

A tad more mainstream but I love the Graeme Revell score for The Crow!

The Omen (once again !)
The Final Conflict (another fine Goldsmith score)
The Amityville Horror
Tenebrae
Suspiria
