A new thread about music we can find in movies, with some DS reminiscences (there is already a thread for video game music, but for movies I think it's quite different).
Well, except the orchestration is maybe too grandiloquent for DS, there is the Conan OST, obviously it carries you to a fantasy realm:
But there are probably other gems as well.
Someone told me about the NEKRomantik / NEKRomantik 2 movie. It's a B horror movie which seems rather crappy (but it seems it's quite a cult movie now). Anyway, the OST is very DS: cheap sounds, great melancholic epic melodies, some others are more simple, yet memorable...

not from a movie and not exactly dungeon synth but the lost world music from diddy's kong quest is an industrial banger

this song (one of my all time favs) is in sinister which isn't the best but has some solid creepy moments and a killer soundtrack. the villain is basically a demon in corpse paint lol

I'm listening to the LOTR soundtracks on Spotify as I write this. First of all, that "majestic theme" is totally ripped off from Jurassic Park. Secondly, unlike genuinely good soundtracks, this really doesn't work that well without the movie. There's some good themes here, and a lot of it accentuate the movie wonderfully, but on its own, this is rather boring.

I don't remember well the LOTR music. Didn't impress me much. I'm listening to it from youtube now. Not bad, but maybe too polished and "epic" for my taste, like the movie probably. Some parts reminds me much of Conan, other of very too classical music. I haven't seen the movie for years. Now for something completely different. Art Zoyd, the grand grand father of Dungeon Synth: Nosferatu ( 1988): DS, noise, it has all... it's quite muddy, gloomy, dirty... What an amazing music. Not to be confonded with the Werner Herzog's movie which ost is great as well (but not very DS, by Popol Vuh): youtu.be/e9AHbslFqNQ?t=17m21s |

I'm listening to Les Baxter's soundtrack to House of Usher right now. It gets a little lachrymose and melodramatic here and there, as was the common character of most soundtracks of the time, but the more brooding and atmospheric parts are excellent. |

"Included with cassette copies of Faith was an instrumental soundtrack for Carnage Visors, an animated film shown in place of an opening act for the band's 1981 Picture Tour." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_CureIt is "lost" in that it is not available anywhere online from what I can tell, but maybe the band members or producers still have it and maybe it will be released someday. I really like the music. |

I heard it for the first time myself in just the past year or so, the deluxe version of the album on Spotify has a bunch of interesting extra tracks. I feel like it's maybe not very soundtracky though, but I don't know movie soundtracks well at all. I liked that House of Usher you posted, especially the spooky choir parts, a really distinctive old movie sort of sound. |

The Alloy Orchestra was an interesting project, they used a lot of unusual and improvised instruments to compose original silent film scores. I've had the pleasure of seeing them live twice, although I gather they've lost a member and have a new name now.
Some crossover with DS, with the use of romplers.
