 Filmtracks: The Hunt for Red October (Basil Poledouris)
The Hunt for Red October : (Basil Poledouris) Considered one of the most energized and authentic action scores of the 1990s, Poledouris' score for this Clancy story stands along-side Ice Station Zebra and Crimson Tide as one of the most popular submarine scores of all time.
Its role in the film is extremely large, and Poledouris' combined use of full orchestra, male chorus, and electronics also makes for an enjoyable listen outside of the film.
The authenticity of the music for The Hunt for Red October stems from Poledouris' interpolation of the Russian national anthem into several cues and, no doubt, the massive contribution of the chorus singing in the Russian language.

Making full use of the widescreen ratio, as will become clear in the closing moments, the film returns to one of his most intriguing conceits: the witness who sees a crime but can’t quite trust his memory in retrospect.
Filmed with Argento's inventive cinematic style and attention to morbid detail (the killer's gloved hands are his own), Deep Red is one of his most effective and disturbing works.
Tellingly, it's perhaps the first Argento movie to flirt with the supernatural, a theme he was soon to develop with great success.
