The horror movie genre is one of complexity, both in design and
story. The style of screenwriting and use of visual and aural
nuances has developed into a rich, exciting form of entertainment
that plays on the viewer's mind, body, and morals. In terms of
visuals, horror movies play on classic psychological fears and
utilize them in ways that may be gruesome or traumatizing, yet
impossible to look away from. However, one of the biggest tools
used to create the sense of fear in the movies is of course the
specific use of sound and music to build and develop tension and
emphasize horrific scenes. From the usage of drums to imitate a
pounding heartbeat to strings playing harsh, discordant and
unexpected sounds meant to imitate the screams of frightened
animals, and the crashing, staccato chords that strike into
instinctive fears, the composer/film scorer of the horror genre
plays an extremely important role in delivering the full effect of
the film that often goes unnoticed.
