im gonna be a little vague here, but ive been after this music for ages and cant get hold of cos i dont know what its called. i always associated with the film The Omen thinking it was its theme tune, but when searching for it on napster it didnt have it. i got a `horror collection` on cd too with a track called The Omen, but it wasnt the bloody one! its definately `devil` type of music Though.

now the only other places i can remember this tune being in was in Only Fools and Horses when dels son damien was born and rodney crapped himself thinking he was the anti-christ or something and also in The Generals Daughter this tunes playing when james woods shoots himself.

i hope someone can help?????

Wasn`t it the same music as was on the Old Spice adverts?

The piece from The Omen is called "Ave Satani". It was written by Jerry Goldsmith, and is based loosely on Carl Orff`s "Carmina Burana" (better known as the theme from the Old Spice advert).

Anyway, it`s on the Omen soundtrack album, which is (I think) now available on CD.

O Fortuna (from Excalibur) *isn`t* the exact same music as Ave Satani (from The Omen). Actually, if you buy the CD "Cinema Choral Classics", it has both pieces of music on, so you can compare them ;-)

Bear - the theme from "Bride of Chucky" is "Living Dead Girl" by Rob Zombie.

HTH

FAO The Ironduke. The piece of music from Donnie Brasco is, I believe, `Lonley Man` by Patrick Doyle. I haven`t been able to find it on Napster, but it`s the first tune listed on the Donnie Brasco score album, and would seem to fit in rather well with the mood of the opening scenes. Top bloody film as well.
