Opening Title Music


When I was a kid in the early to mid 70's there was a show called Creature Feature on WGN in Chicago and each week it opened with the same montage of scenes from classic horror films set to the opening theme music from this movie. Until I saw the film a few years ago I never knew it was from this movie or that Henry Mancini composed it. If you think about it, it really fits for a montage of horror film scenes.

The Fantomas version is amazingly brilliant.

You'd think it'd be impossible for anyone to recreate a Mancini masterpiece and make it their own, but... Mike Patton (along with the band) is not just anyone...

Their classic Director's Cut album is masterful work. The covers on it, are just as good, if not better than the originals (some at least).

The theme should have had both strings AND a theremin on the bridge.

If you put me on ignore, then how can I notify you when I win the lottery?
