1	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) more music like this by Danny Elfman see all copies from $3.93! new only from $10.97!
2	The Corpse Bride (2005) more music like this by Danny Elfman A study in contrasts, the score to The Corpse Bride, Danny Elfman's second 2005 collaboration with Tim Burton, features some of the composer's gentlest, most restrained pieces as well as some of his vividest ones. Tellingly, most of the pieces that soundtrack the land of the living, including the "Main Titles" and "Victor's Piano Solo," are gray ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $16.23!
3	Spider-Man [Soundtrack] (2002) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Spider-Man is pitched directly at the nu-metal/rap-rock/post-grunge crowd. Many of the bands do try to tie into the theme of Spider-Man -- Alien Ant Farm has "Bug Bytes," Chad Kroeger of Nickelback offers the dour anthem of "Hero" -- and some songs distinguish themselves along the way: the Hives display why they're rightly touted ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $7.75!
4	Music for a Darkened Theatre, Vol. 1: Film & Television Music (1990) more music like this by Danny Elfman A very representative collection of some of Elfman's best work for films and television, it includes music from Batman, Dick Tracy, Midnight Run, even the theme from The Simpsons, among others. Tavia Hobart, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.45! new only from $8.34!
5	Beetlejuice (1988) more music like this by Danny Elfman Danny Elfman provides one of his most quintessentially Elfman-esque scores for one of Tim Burton's most quintessentially Burton-esque movies, Beetlejuice. The film's dark yet sardonically funny "Main Titles" is among Elfman's all-time best moments, bustling along with a dark joie de vivre (or is it joie de morte ?) that defines the spooky fun ... see all copies from $3.89! new only from $8.65!
6	Sleepy Hollow [Original Score] (1999) more music like this by Danny Elfman Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow reunites the distinctive director with his equally noteworthy musical collaborator, Danny Elfman. His orchestral score for the film features the mix of darkness and wonder that has graced Burton's previous films and other fantasy and horror movies like Army of Darkness and Dolores Claiborne. Much of Sleepy Hollow's score ... see all copies from $10.70! new only from $10.70!
7	The Great Fantasy Adventure Album (1994) more music like this by Cincinnati Pops Orchestra/Erich Kunzel, Cond. see all copies from $8.50! new only from $15.40!
8	Dick Tracy [Original Score] (1990) more music like this by Danny Elfman Danny Elfman rearranges a handful of the notes from his otherwise identical Batman score. That proves to be enough to make this one considerably less melodically coherent. The highlight of the record comes when Elfman stops plagiarizing his own work long enough to plagiarize John Williams' classic barroom jazz from the cantina scene in Star Wars ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $20.00!
9	Planet of the Apes [2001 Score] (2001) more music like this by Danny Elfman For Tim Burton's "reimagining" of Planet of the Apes, Danny Elfman produced a dynamic, thundering score filled with powerhouse brass and percussion. Fundamentally based around a rising three-note motif, the score opens with the extended "Main Titles," then launches straight into the standout "Ape Suite #1," an overture-like introduction to the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.09!
10	Red Dragon [Original Score] (2002) more music like this by Danny Elfman Anyone recalling the 2001 film adaptation of Thomas Harris' novel Hannibal and expecting Dr. Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lecter, played by Anthony Hopkins, to turn up in Red Dragon minus one of his hands can be reassured that the film is actually a "prequel" to Hannibal's predecessor, The Silence of the Lambs, not a sequel to Hannibal. Dr. Lecter ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.00!
11 view cover	Hulk (2003) more music like this by Danny Elfman see all copies from $2.99! new only from $9.69!
12 view cover	Novocaine (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $4.29! new only from $5.00!
13 view cover	Mars Attacks! (1997) more music like this by Danny Elfman The combination of composer Danny Elfman and director Tim Burton may well go down in cinema history as a pairing as perfectly matched as Hitchcock and Herrmann or Fellini and Rota -- Elfman's score to Burton's sci-fi satire Mars Attacks! captures the film's gleeful malice to perfection, both evoking and re-inventing the music of McCarthy-era alien ... see all copies from $15.93!
14 view cover	Darkman (1990) more music like this by Danny Elfman This album was sort of tossed out by MCA without fanfare after Darkman was released to only minor success. It's another in the series of dramatic, heavily orchestrated scores Elfman is known for, orchestrated by Steve Bartek with an assist from conductor Shirley Walker. While comparisons have been made between this score and that for Batman, there ... see all copies from $24.16!
15 view cover	To Die For (1995) more music like this by Danny Elfman The soundtrack to To Die For contains nothing but the film's background music, which doesn't work particularly well when stripped from its visual context. Sara Sytsma, All Music Guide see all copies from $2.95!
16 view cover	Sommersby (1993) by Danny Elfman see all copies from $34.50! new only from $34.50!
17 view cover	Nightbreed (1990) more music like this by Danny Elfman More music by Danny Elfman, falling into the orchestrated neo-Gothic area that he mined for a while. This is one of those albums that you either have a taste for, or just don't want to know about; certainly, it's a fascinating piece of work -- moody, pushy, quirky, with orchestral tones that jump out at you, which means it's perfectly in keeping ... see all copies from $10.88!
18 view cover	The Film Music of Danny Elfman (2008) more music like this by City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra Since he emerged as a Hollywood movie composer with Pee Wee's Big Adventure in 1985, surprising those who knew him only as the leader of the new wave group Oingo Boingo, Danny Elfman has worked extensively, at first with director Tim Burton, who also made his initial mark with Pee Wee's Big Adventure, and then with others as well. It's hard to say ... see all copies from $14.78! new only from $14.78!
