Original movie soundtracks are important for setting the atmosphere of a film. For horror movies in particular, the soundtrack needs a slow pace with unsettling sound effects to heighten tension. Successful horror movie scores, like those from the Silent Hill films, create a gloomy and despairing mood that enhances the story. Good soundtracks are also needed for other genres like love stories, action movies, and comedies to support the plot and characters. An engaging original score can make or break a movie by bringing it to life or leaving it feeling dry and lifeless without music.
