Description
Pino Donaggio's score to the 1981 Joe Dante classic The Howling remains a model of horror movie music. Pulpy and melodramatic yet never silly, its skillful mosaic of gothic organ, supernatural strings, and sound effects is a chillingly potent evocation of dread. Donaggio's melodies are tightrope-taut, ratcheting the suspense at every turn, and while his music is an integral element of Dante's onscreen narrative, The Howling is one of a precious few horror soundtracks that succeeds independently of visual media, artfully combining human voices, lush synthesizer motifs, and Herrmann-inspired dissonance to create a symphony of fear.
