Please don't perpetuate that myth about HATEFUL EIGHT.
The score featured 3 tracks from The Thing ("Eternity," "Bestiality," and "Despair"), which on the soundtrack run for 13:22, but only about six minutes of them were used in the film. There's one track from The Exorcist II (Regan's Theme - Floating Sound), which runs for 2:07. And there are four songs, running for a total of 9:59, although one of them played over the end credits. The rest of the score was entirely original, and totaled 51 minutes 43 seconds. So out of more than an hour of music, less than 10 minutes of it was pre-existing score music.
Definitely true, Morricone wrote a substantial and original score for the film, and by far most film cues (and the most prominent ones) were music specifically composed for the movie, so it's not as if HATEFUL 8 was mostly pre-existing. It wasn't.

Still reeling after seeing MANCHESTER BY THE SEA and how the director, Kenneth Lonergan, chose to use one of the most overused pieces of classical music for the films biggest emotional scene...a scene that needed, IMO, a much smaller, intimate, original bit of scoring, and certainly didn't need to carry on into the following scene, overpowering the quiet tragedy in Casey Affleck's performance. I'd love to know if Lesley Barber wrote a complete score for the film and the director only decided to use a few selections, and whether or not the film was temp'd from the beginning with the classical pieces.
