Dark Movie Scores

[~*Cookie*~]

anybody have any great, dark movie scores? i'm looking to get more and i'm not sure what to buy. something similar to the batman begins score, interview with the vampire, constantine, etc. i don't want soundtracks of hit songs that were in a movie. rather, i want music composed by a particular composer.

Pick up the Requiem for a Dream score. It kicks ass.

for some reason i thought it was a soundtrack with a compilation of songs rather than a score. i'll check it out though. thanks

Check out stuff by Michael Nyman or Philip Glass

Pretty much anything by Danny Elfman (Spelling?) .. He did most of Tim Burton's films, and their amazing. I was surpised this hadn't been mentioned yet. Here is a few of the scores Elfman did:

Batman/Batman Returns
Beatlejuice
Edward SissorhanRAB
Spiderman/Spiderman 2

ect.

Bernard Herrman - "Psycho", "North By Northwest"
(this is the guy that wrote the whistling theme the one eyed nurse whistles in "Kill Bill Vol. 1)

1989 Batman - Danny Elfman
Theme to the Incredible Hulk TV show
A lot of people love the theme to Somewhere In Time. It's very popular and shouldn't be too hard to find.
