    As much as I love this show, a good deal of the scores sound...oh, what's the word...oh, yeah, cheap. But Alan Silvestri's scores somehow manage to stand out. Does anyone know where I can find them on CD?

    Unfortunately, the only CD of score from "Tales from the Crypt" was released on Big Screen Records, and included music by Elfman, Horner, and others - but I don't recall any Silvestri cues being present.

    Can anyone with the disc confirm?

    I donīt have the CD myself, but I think Dan is right. Thereīs nothing of Silvestriīs music for the show on it. A shame, really.

    I can confirm it...unfortunately so.
    Although the album is quite "nice", in my opinion they could have made it better.
    YES, Alan Silvestri did very good music for various episodes.

    I personally like most of all the Main Title sequence and the intros and closing comments by the Crypt Keeper

    I have a CD with unreleased music from Tales From The Crypt. It features two Silvestri scores: HOUSE OF HORROR and TIL DEATH DO WE PART. They're both about 13mins each. Cool stuff...
