Goblin: 'Zombi' main title theme (Dario Argento version)

[coopebt]

They should play this when chuck norris beats up zombies

[biffen89]

Is it just me, or does this theme kinda sound like a news jingle?

[Brecconable]

@biffen89 On tonights headlines I am going to be...eaten alive? AAAAAARRRGGHHH

[actorben]

This should play in L4D whenever The Horde attacks!!

[actorben]

"Hold it Flyboy!! Don't open that door baby, you'll lead them right with ya'! Run for it, run this way! Alright! Alright! Alright!! Classic lines from a classic movie w/ this music in the background!

[wtf703]

movie is a classic and this track fuckin rocks..let me get on my Travolta mode real quick uhh

[Dividebysix]

They should have made this song the easter egg in Call of The Dead zombie map from black ops

[RobinsTaste]

If you missed to water the flowerplants for a whole week and figures they must be dying, and while you rush out to give them poor folls some water, THIS TUNE KICKS IN!

[theblehguy1]

0:50

Take pete's car, drive over to mum's, we go in, take care of philip(sorry), then we grab mum, take liz, go to the WINCHESTER, have a pint, and wait for all this to blow over.

How's that for a slice of fried gold?

Yeah, boi!

[bigD2387]

@theblehguy1 "BECAUSE, BECAUSE OF CAPTAIN WOW!" lol

[alicechickenmaster]

OH MY GOD THIS DAMN SONG AAAAAAAHHH!!!! XD

[wandererlain]

Do anybody know what the music is called that is played when Peter turns the TV back on after Fran turns it off? It's also played in a Commodore 64 game called Jet Set Willy 2. I've looked everywhere and am at a total loss.

[Mourning6star66]

@wandererlain I believe it's called Romance.

[wandererlain]

@Mourning6star66 I think you're right! It's mentioned on the Extended Version here on YouTube as such and as "an old Spanish song" though I believe it's originally Beethoven's.

[puma061082]

@wandererlain Romanza Española, unknown composer.



[Liucilla]

by far the grooviest...

[wandererlain]

This fucking ROCKS

[LeviTheActorDirector]

Makes me wanna jump outta bed, throw on a military uniform, grab a rifle and go outside an' start shooting zombies :')

[skullmask5]

the GOBLINS!!!!!

[yethboth]

The Dario Argento European Version of Dawn Of The Dead is my favourite version. :)

[theretrogamerno1]

This is the best version of Dawn of the dead ever made EVER!

[abSOULuteD]

Anyone thinking of CONTRA!!?

[SHOGOIKEDA0]

「ドーン・オブ・ザ・デッド」のパロディの「ショーン・オブ・ザ­・デッド」という映画で、ショーンの作戦タイムのシーンで作戦の­想像図の映像の所でこの曲の一部が流れていました。

[RetroStacja]

I was waiting for so long to hear this again! Great movie, great soundtrack. The first movie with zombies that I've ever watched :)

[otacon451]

oh my god its the motherfucking news, right fucking now!

[mosriteluv]

I love this song. Goblin are awesome. Part of this song reminds me of the SWAT theme. I was wondering if perhaps Goblin were paying a slight homage to it because 2 of the main characters are SWAT guys. Either that or it's a '70s thing. I love the '70s:)

[machinehead2324]

News just in!

[drlogan13]

@Zefabouah ah ah ah well done 

[Justinshred01]

I hope people realise that this was in the original Dawn of the Dead during the final scene when the zombies are let loose in the mall and wasnt exclusivley in the ZOMBI version.. really pisses me off when people don't know that..

[Mwgedd]

@Justinshred01

Yeah, this was a pretty prominent song in the regular cut of Dawn of the Dead, if i remember correctly.

[myckon]

Espetacular!

[VendavalEste]

I'm confused, I thought this WASN'T from the Italian soundtrack, so what is the original soundtrack like? I always thought this was the original.

[OriginalPinkbird]

@VendavalEste I was confused too. I read a couple other posts on the net & listened to a few others too. This person explained it clearly on their Youtube. Did you see it already? If not, hope this helps. :)

[pratnodillma]

la musica dei goblin è fantastica!!

[videowatch84]

the most epic news theme ever

[RomeroFanboy]

Love this track, play it all the time when i'm playing Deadrising makes the gameplay a whole lot better. Although Capcom is getting the fucking shit sued out of them by George Romero, still a pretty good game. I just wish they hadnt stolen the fucking mall concept from romero bcz he didnt do the Resident Evil movie, which by the way all four are so FUCKING HORRIBLE!!!!!

[JigsawKrueger]

They used this in the Directors Cur aswell. Yeah, a thing about the Directors Cut DVD cover. It says Uncut Version, I put commentary on (idk why) and it said that there were still bits of it cut. It said that the girls boyfriend who but her in the shoulder (at the start) there was a cut blood splurt.

[lukeman527]

AWSOMENESS!!!!!!!!!!, my fave movie for all time, no zombie movie has managed to have the feel that dawn of the dead has, great soundtrack, great film and a great director GEORGE . A . ROMERO!!!!!

[schalke2004aem]

brrrrrr, where are the zombies? huhhhhhh

[yuya7723]

Best horror movie !

Goblin music too.

[decunamus2]

Romero made his own version and it sucked. Argento safed this movie.

[21centuryg]

this is my shit!

[brismike65]

This is awesome MoshPit thanks for posting, we saw Dawn of the Dead on the big screen about 2 months ago and it has lost none of the greatness from 30 years ago so thanks for posting the soundtrack

[Dellta88]

Damn thats awesome

[actorben]

Best...Background...music...EV­ER!!

[GETTOBOMBER]

Great music. Was used in different movies after "Dawn of the Dead"

[dansimsss]

test

[panderoath]

(y)

[plombex]

hfhfhf

[icevader8]

it would be cool if they had this song on rockband

[MilknPopcorn]

I remember in Hell of the Living Dead they use this exact theme!

[markthemovieman]

@MilknPopcorn aka 'Zombie Creeping Flesh' and yes, they did rip the soundtrack off for Bruno Mattei's crappy cash-in.

[mackusch]

Wow ,it makes me really scare,....fuck i don't know how long i was searching for this song. Horror-Deluxe

[Boundinplastic]

Stop wineing

[pensarefare]

@PaulHark9

This soundtrack is by goblin, an italian group. Actually, even the movie is different. I mean, it's the same, but the italian version is edited differently and the final product is a better movie. Unlike what they did with Martin (which they turned into a bad film)

[Grm0xlr2]

One word for the song:

EPIC!!!

[Horrortunes]

Goblin rules!

[MetalheadDude69]

Hell yes!!! Now I feel like capping some zombie ass too!

[DiegoDCvids]

awesome soundtrack!!

[truth583]

man.

i want to shoot my way through zombies now.

[ningeaBLADEclanuBECA]

then play left 4 dead;)

[truth583]

[8ulls3y3]

LOL

[Madrrrrrrrrrrr]

God damn pimp music! I love it

[Rudeyoungman20]

I always dig tha Goblin music. I grew up with this theme and tha movie of course.

[glasgowdmon]

dawn of the dead, favourite horror of all time. classic soundtrack aswell.

[Boundinplastic]

For fuck sakes 70s music was so shitty for horror movies back then sound like god damn pimp music

[zombielust1969]

You're an idoit, and thats all I have to say about your stupid post...learn your history before you make a stupid comment like that!!!

[Boundinplastic]

Learn my history eh.. right.. ladys first. judgemental prick

[zombielust1969]

If you knew anything about horror movies you douchebag, you would know Goblin has done music for some of the best horror movies ever made i.e. Suspiria...like I said, learn your history!!!

[Boundinplastic]

Suspiria was filmed in 1977 and most his music was done in the 70s and early 80s Includeing Legend if I was so historicly inacurate whats that make you.. fuckn vaginal belch get a life and bitch about it some more your just makeing a fool of yourself

[zombielust1969]

What the fuck are you talking about? His music??? And there is no "e" in the word including....

[citizenhal]

Boundinplastic, you're the one with spelling like a 6 year old. Before you start blabbering on about stuff you have no clue about, learn english.

[fiwaszewski]

love this film

[savinisbitch]

best movie ever ever ever

[Zebula77]

I actually prefer the truck scene music from the longest cut, but this one is classic. Love Goblins.

[italianguerrilla]

orgasm

[goblindigital2]

This track is powerful, in drums, drums, and more drums... Goblin for ever!

5 stars!

[Charleah27700]

Dario Argento rules...!! love his movie Demons!!

[CharlieOlvera]

Demons is actually a Lamberto Bava film, although Argento did produce (and, I believe, co-wrote) the film.

[Charleah27700]

thanks for telling me that I didn't know......but thanks for giving me some knowledge on these movies and directors

[XvDarkArcanavX]

Demons 2 is even better surprisingly, love em both ^_^

[Charleah27700]

i know and I love them both too.....

[pile333]

In the italian version of Dawn Of The Dead this theme is played much more times than the american version, replacing other musics, on the purpose to make the movie even more frantic.

I think in Italy Goblin has never had the public appraisal they deserved.

[EndangeredZombi]

Praise for Goblin! frantic is the right word!

in the US, I have bought Cannibal Holocaust (fantastic soundtrack by Riz)

and Suspiria (Goblin) (Argento) purchasing with never viewing,

Zombi (Lucio Fulci)

Kims Video (has moved from St Marks) sells uncut director cuts of D" amato's " Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals",

Lenzi's "Cannibal Ferox", and

Goblin on Joe D' Amatos 'Blue Omega' Goblin is one of the greatest movie music, up there with Williams and Star Wars.

[Traductus5972]

yes goblin did really good of writing music for the film but the thing is that Romero's idea was to make a mockery of the mall and pop culture (hence why he used other music for the movie than dario) , Dario on the other habd edited to make it more like a comic book horror theme (mainly cuz at the time he didn't fully understand the concept of making a kickass horror film while being a satire and a social statement at the same time)

[pile333]

Yes, you're right; probably that's one of the reasons why the movie has different lenghts in different countries.But it would be a good movie even without the gore scenes.

What if Romero would have used the heavily tragic alternate ending?

[Traductus5972]

i think he should've it was the original ending

[MassTransit999]

Hahah thats awesome lol

[Primodummy92]

WoW this is sooooo awesome!

[nahpop1]

no he dont play with them! ;)

[yulethomson]

FUCK!!!...the dawn of the dead remake

[WaPow132]

no , unfortunately. But claudio simonetti, Fabio pignatelli, massimo morante, and walter martino play this song.

[Jshaw71]

awesome music, from an awesome movie dawn of the dead 78, is still my fav movie, after all these years... thanks for the upload, great sound quality too, thanks!!

[yethboth]

Great Soundtrack! :)

[ningeaBLADEclanuBECA]

THIS IS FUCKIN GREAT!

[DhiscoStu]

*hides behind sofa*

[goblindigital2]

MORE THAN PERFECT!!!

EXCELLENT!!!!

This track of Goblin is POWER!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting!!!!!!

[Anarkokommunist]

Fucking awesome!

I never get tired of this movie! The 2004 version gets kind of boring after a while, but this movie is still good!

[TexasPsychoK]

Awesome!!!

[drvector]

Cool song, but Dario Argento had practicly nothing to do with this song or the Dawn of the Dead soundtrack. This is a song by Goblin. Atleast you could put them in tags instead of Megadeth and Slayer.

[MoshPitZombie]

Dario Argento was a script consultant on 'George A Romero's Dawn of the Dead'. Romero was having a hard time with the script and Argento invited Romero (and his wife) to Rome, Italy to work on the movie.

Argento's 'Zombi' is a result of Dario adding edited and cutting room floor material to Dawn of the Dead, createing the European version of Romero's film.

(Thus Fulci had to call his flick 'Zombi 2' to avoid confusion with Argento & Romero's film aka 'Zombie Flesh Eaters, and so)

[MoshPitZombie]

I added Slayer and Megadeth because I personally enjoy those bands, and am trying to draw that audience in so they can hear a little Goblin.

A lot of people have no idea of Goblin, and I did not till a few years ago when I first viewed Dario Argento's 'Suspiria',which Goblin worked on with Argento. Goblin is a musical extension of Dario Argento, and the two creative units have worked on dozens of movie soundtracks together.

To say Goblin has nothing to do with Argento is prepostourous.

[drvector]

Goblin was formed years before their collaboration with Argento, and before that they were called Cherry Five. They were part of the rich progressive rock movement of Italy. Goblin members have said it themselves, that Argento played no role in the composing area. He gave instructions about the feeling he wanted the music to provoke, but never played any melody, instrument or sound. Just because they had collaboration doesn't mean that Argento composed anything.

[drvector]

Apparently this ignored my 2nd message. I didn't say "Goblin has nothing to do with Argento". What I said was "Dario Argento had practicly nothing to do with this song or the Dawn of the Dead soundtrack", which is a different matter. I should've emphasized that I meant it musicwise. Sure, Argento commissioned Goblin to write music, but he didn't compose any music.

[MoshPitZombie]

seeing you are from Finland, you would have more knowledge and experience with Goblin then myself.

In nyc, I know Goblin from purchasing DVDs at a speciality store in the East Village.they are an oversea band,and I would have to see when and where they played in the states.

This band Goblin captured the moments in Argentos film, & I find some of the material in 'Pheonema' as a brilliant classic.

'Tenebre' intro. Suspiria.Joe Damato.awesome. I have them in me ipod thanks 2 library.

[MoshPitZombie]

show me where I say that Argento plays 'melody, instrument or sound'.

Dario Argento worked on all aspects of his films: special effects, set design, music, direction,script, story. I dont think Goblin who brush aside an artistic genius with vision and sound as Argento and the opportunity for feedback.

These two minds created some of the greatest movie music, each expressing the sounds and moods uniquely. I know Argento did not sit down and pick up a guitar and jam with Goblin.

[MoshPitZombie]

Did John Williams not receive feedback, ideas, suggestions, story moods and situations, scene scripts, from George Lucas to create 'Star Wars' and all the music.

( Indian Jones and Close Encounters, Jaws with Spielberg)

Did George Lucas write down the music? No Did he play violin? No.

To say these individual hard core movie makers would not be involved with such an important aspect of their films, such as music, I dont agree with.

[drvector]

Point taken. But still we don't know any specific details from the Goblin-Argento process, other than the guys in Goblin composed this song, _maybe_ with some (most likely non-musical) guidelines from Argento. I have a CD release of the Zombi soundtrack and it clearly states "music by Goblin", without any extra reference to Argento or his guidelines. My guess is that Goblin composed a bunch of musical sketches and Argento chose which ones to use on the soundtrack, but it's just a guess.

[drvector]

And this is from a movie by George Romero, not Argento. Argento just re-cut it (into more gory version) and commissioned Goblin to write some tunes. I doubt it was as glorious process as you try to depict with our Lucas/Spielberg-Williams comparison.

[MoshPitZombie]

well played.

[Traductus5972]

@drvector eh the cut mainly just focused more on the gore instead of the mockery of society and mall culture which was what the film as a whole was, George A. Romero himself said that Dario never really understood the film

[thimy69]

@Traductus5972 intentional or not, it's maybe stuck in their unconsciousness.

[EndangeredZombi]

zombi funks it out.

5 stars!
