"For the Last Time We'll Pray"

Who said horror music can't be beautiful?

This is probably my favorite track from the soundtrack of one of my favorite horror movies, Carrie (1976).



Carrie by Stephen King (Can you tell I'm an English major with my properly formatted titles?) is an awesome book but the Brian DePalma movie in itself is a gem. I am not exaggerating when I say Carrie is one of the horror genre's best films.

Random Horror Trivia: One of characters in the film who bullies Carrie is named Norma Watson, played by actress PJ Soles, who would later appear in Halloween (1978). In one of Halloween's later sequels, Halloween H2O: 20 Years Later (1998), actress Janet Leigh (who is a horror icon along with her daughter, Jamie Lee Curtis [Scream Queen!]) played a character named Norma Watson to give a nod to Carrie.
