Wojciech Kilar - Bram Stoker's Dracula OST

One of the most unsettling scores I have ever listened to - which is not a criticism, but just a fact of life for this rare Hollywood effort from Polish composer Kilar. It starts well with a prelude 'Dracula: The Beginning', which has a rich, East European sound, and follows on with a suitably dark and dramatic main theme, 'Vampire Hunters', played on low-toned brass with a strong percussion undercurrent, which is also repeated in the cue 'The Hunt Builds'. Kilar has also composed a surprisingly gentle, touching romantic theme entitled 'Love Remembered', which continues on into 'Love Eternal', with soft strings performing a beautiful melody. The scary bit, however, comes in the cue 'The Ring of Fire', which underscores the scene where the Brides of Dracula mutilate Anthony Hopkins' horse - listening to this with headphones on will give you nightmares for a week.
