Various Artists - Very Scary Music: Classic Horror Themes

Want the original songs - look elsewhere...

I will keep it simple - these are not the original songs from the respective movies. These are different versions created by Roy Shakked. Luckily, Roy is talented and 2 of the songs sound similar to the originals. The rest sound closer to 80's pop. October 17, 2007

OK

I really didn't like this CD to much. But the Halloween theme save it from mediocrity. It is one of the best versions I have ever heard. I actully do PT/ Run or get hype for football games to it. If you like the Halloween theme then get the CD just for that. September 5, 2007

Great for the Halloween night!!!

Great music, exclusively music from the movies. I used it to scare off the kids at night when treak-or-treatin. Only the classics included!!! January 12, 2007

Average collection of cover tunes.

I've had reasonable luck with Laserlight's Halloween CDs, introducing me to such artist as Screaming Lord Sutch, the Undertakers, and a couple of other minor groups popular for Halloween-themed music.
By comparisson, this CD is a relative disappointment, featuring covers of spooky movie and TV themes.
Friday the 13th gets butchered the worst, with Exorcist following close behind, primarily by being about a minute to long, and the Twilight Zone is way too funky.
Halloween and Nightmare on Elm Street fare the best, followed by Jaws and X-files. The rest are tributes to mediocrity.
For Wal-Mart's price of under four dollars, it's a decent deal, but I certainly couldn't recommend spending any more than that for it.

Not bad for the price

It's a mediocre collection of horror movie music. Not bad for the price, but it sounds a bit too synthesizery. February 16, 2005
