I do enjoy a good film score ... especially in older movies for some reason. I just think a film should perhaps stand on it's own without the music as well. I'm not entirely sure tbh, gonna have to give this some thought lol.

On the other hand I do enjoy a good rock and roll soundtrack - I think the incongruity of such music with seeing someone hacked up/beaten/killed can be highly effective.

I guess like anything it depends on how it's done exactly and it can be overused like anything else.
