Classic TV Theme: Thriller (Boris Karloff)

Описание: 'Thriller' (1960) started off as an anthology of crime and suspense stories, but new producers introduced more supernatural/horror stories, which helped get the show a second season. It might have continued to a third but NBC was expanding Hitchcock's anthology series to an hour and apparently Hitch didn't want to share the limelight. At first Pete Rugolo was the main composer; he composed the theme and the original end credits. Jerry Goldsmith and Morton Stevens came on board as the focus on horror increased. Rugolo's jazzy end credits were dispensed with; now each episode would have end credits music by that ep's composer. (Rugolo's main title theme remained in place).
