Horror

A horror film score is music used and often especially written for films in the horror genre. Beginning of the Sound Era 1930s and '40s While the breakthrough Universal horror films of 1931, Dracula and Frankenstein used little or no music apart from for title sequences, Franz Waxman's score for The Bride of Frankenstein is often cited as one of the first modern film scores. In particular, the long and elaborate piece that accompanies the Bride's creation is a triumph of orchestral film scoring, enhancing greatly the excitement, eeriness and wit of the film.
