The soundtrack for Phantasm (1979), composed by Fred Myrow and Malcolm Seagrave, is widely regarded as a pinnacle of horror film scoring, often cited as one of the top soundtracks in the genre. The score is a "slow, sinister version of prog bombast" that blends progressive rock, horror synth, and ambient textures. A haunting, eight-note melody heavily influenced by Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells and John Carpenter’s Halloween. It features a primary piano line supported by Mellotron voices and analog synthesisers.
