Criminally underrated film, easily better than most of the Halloween sequels that followed. One of the best Carpenter scores as well.

Unfortunately I only recently discovered this.

That just means there’s more material to enjoy. I only knew about Recoil because I’m a big Depeche Mode fan. Alan Wilder was the guy that brought layered complexity to DM’s music and it’s been noticeably absent since he left in 1995.

Ultra was OK but I didn’t really enjoy anything else after that. I like the pulsing, ominous synths from the Wilder period because it reminds me of old synth film scores like John Carpenter stuff.

Agreed. What made them great was Martin Gore’s lyrics (back up and sometimes lead vocals), Dave Gahan’s vocals (one of my favorite singers), and Alan Wilder’s compositions and experimentation with sound.
