Goblin ruled, still rules

Here's a case where I'll let the sounds do the justifying/explaining/entertaining here.

Goblin = a group of progressive musicians from Italy who scored some of the best genre flicks to come out of the 1970s/the best soundtrack-providers in cinematic history (at least for my corrupted sensibilities)

Listen to their work, and fall in love. Or not, though be warned: if you don't, I'll think less of you. Maybe just keep the far-from-impressed reactions to yourself, then.

George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead, the first time I noticed the collective group name Goblin in the credits under "original music by..."


Dario Argento's Suspiria, officially my all-time top movie score, hands crashed-down on the table of decision (seriously, how fuckin' brilliant is this right here? Cool points forever awarded to Cage and RJD2 for sampling it on "Weather People," too)


Argento's Deep Red....Goblin and Argento went together like Danny Elfman and Tim Burton (Argento even produced Dawn of the Dead)


**Just watched Deep Red for the second time. The "painting is actually a mirror" trick is perfectly-executed, and genius maximized. Well played, Argento-sir. Well played.

>>>>BONUS
This one's not by Goblin; rather, it's the work of another great Italian horror film composer: Fabio Frizzi. And it rules just as much as the above Goblin stuff.

The main theme for Lucio Fulci's awesome-in-every-gloriously-overdone-Dawn-of-the-Dead-ripping-off-way Zombi. (Necro, that aforementioned horror-loving sick fuck/horrorcore rap producer, also sampled this one. What a guy.)
