5. Though the original was spectacular for its time, a remake would
be welcome.... The Time Machine has been remade twice and each was treat for the science fiction buff in me.

8. Scared the crap out of me when I was a kid
Spookiest music score ever. Still gives me the willies.

Michael Rennie was the coolest alien ever.

15. an instrument called the theremin was part of the soundtrack
Edited on Fri Oct-31-08 09:52 PM by spanone
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theremin

The Russian Dmitri Shostakovich was one of the first composers to include parts for the theremin in orchestral pieces, including a use in his score for the 1931 film Odna. While the theremin was not widely used in classical music performances, the instrument found great success in many motion pictures, notably, Spellbound, The Red House, The Lost Weekend (All three of which were written by Miklós Rózsa, the composer who pioneered the use of the instrument in Hollywood scores), The Spiral Staircase, The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Thing (From Another World), The Ten Commandments (the 1956 DeMille film).
