Don't | Short Film
Edgar Wright | 2007
Feeling like a complete philistine not realising Edgar Wright's fake film trailer Don't (2007), as featured in the Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's double bill Grindhouse (2007), took inspiration from the opening titles in John Hough's British supernatural chiller The Legend of Hell House (1973) until now.

On another revelation related to The Legend of Hell House, I never realised how masterfully atmospheric the electronic score from Delia Derbyshire and Brian Hodgson (both were music composers for the long running BBC sci-fi series Doctor Who) was. Haunting would be an understatement.
Unfortunately there hasn't ever been an official release of the soundtrack, just an extremely limited edition of a bootleg:

Did you see that the surviving members of the BBC's Radiophonic workshop got together for a final reunion performance at Maida Vale this past week?
That Fifth Doctor theme is such a great 80s synth version of a classic theme.
Also, really love how nasty the synths sound on March of the Cybermen from Eathshock.
The Cybermen episodes always brought the best outta the Radiophonic Workshop posse.
Agreed. Shame they didn't do the same with the more modern incarnations of the Cybermen, though.
