The music from the "Omen" movies always got to me a little. It's just evil!

the theme from JAWS

Nothing freaks me out more than the music from Psycho. I don't know that it would work with any other movie, but it is so fitting and adds so much to that movie. Hitchcock himself said, "33% of the effect of Psycho was due to the music." The score, composed by Bernard Herrmann, is played entirely by stringed instruments. ...CREEPY!

I hate to sound cliche but the Halloween Theme has been and always will be my favorite. But, I also like the theme to the original Amityville Horror.

friday the 13th theme.. i guess it's because it is upbeat so it just adds to the suspense :P
-
Maybe Chariot of Pumpkins from Halloween III. It's a bit unnerving. (The movie itself is pretty laughable though.) But the one that creeps me out the most is from Invasion of the Body Snatchers. One of the songs in there is total soul rape. More sci fi than horror, but yeah.

"The Omen" -- the entire musical score "Psycho" - - the entire musical score "Alien" - - the entire score (sci-fi/horror) "Coma" - - the entire score ( and, so cool, composer Jerry Goldsmith went way out there in my opinion - -there is no background musical score for about the entire first half of movie and from then on, the music almost never stops. ) again, sci-fi, I guess +5

Boogy man!! And yes children signing when you know some is about to die with erry music!!

Listening to Poet and the Pendulum soundtrack gets me the creeps but it sounds contemporary too with rock
-
Not a film, but the theme from tales from the darkside still gives me chills. It always takes me back to my 4th grade summer and staying up late at night to get scarred silly.
-
"The Exorcist". . . . . .hands down!
-
Jaws was a good one.
-
The Omen trilogy, definitely. It's like a Gregorian chant, but with a Satanic twist. And it's worth Googling the lyrics -- the Latin plus the English translation.

The Horror of Dracula!!! I paid 25 cents at the State theater in Cincinnati, Ohio to see the introductory scripts. Fear said,"time to go"!
