Did I miss Psycho?

The Mephisto Waltz should have been there. Maybe Wojciech Kilar's Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Glad they got one JG and one BH on there. Putting the Halloween franchise at 1 & 2 feels like they just gave up at the end.

Hellraiser at 30? Psycho at 15? Omen at 8?
Sorry, have to strongly disagree! Omen should be higher
and the other two should be in the top ten.
A third of the list, I have never heard of the movie.

There are TWO amazing things happening every single time someone posts a list that some website has published:
1. People are upset that one or several established classics are not included, as if it were some list of established, "objective" classics only (how boring would THAT have been; every single list looking exactly the same time after time?)
2. People are upset that THEIR favourites are not included, as if it's some personal affront that other people don't share their preferences.
Personally, I find such lists entertaining because they offer a glimpse into someone's subjective evaluations (or, in this case, a group of people); not because they MUST adher to my own picks, or some 'common truth'.
[I think I'm going to copy/paste this post every time a list thing happens]
We don't have the luxury of getting our opinions published in Rolling Stone, hence the reason I think people tend to gravitate towards that behavior of sharing their own opinions, otherwise what would be the point of commenting on the post except to say "thanks for sharing"? It's not something that is exclusive to this board--anytime I see a list on a video game forum, there are always people crying foul about their favorite not being included. Everyone just wants to be heard.

Hey Thor, I think you're jumping the gun. I didn't read anything that indicated that anybody was getting that wound up. Just opinions. Yes, these lists are entertaining, and they're grist for discussion: validation, dismissal, and suggestions.
We're talking film music here, and with rare exception, not even Oscar-winning film music, so nobody's going postal.

A Clockwork Orange - horror?? They must be mad.
No Alien? A gross oversight. It's certainly more horror than science fiction.
And only one from Shore? I'd easily pick Scanners before Videodrome, or even The Fly.
