The OST will win the Oscar for best Soundtrack.

Dimitri Tiomkin’s score was the definitive one...

Morricone should have won for the best movie ever made “ Once Upon a Time in America”

I liked Carpenter’s score for The Thing.
Interesting.

I listened to the opening score and it did sound like something more appropriate for a horror film than a western.

It was also quite repetitive. Much more like a piece by Philip Glass.

Not very impressive.

Many of the western scores that have become classics such as those for The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly or The Magnificent Seven included sequences that intimated the sweeping grandeur of the western landscape.

H8ful Eight I believe all takes place in a small cabin in a snowstorm. It would probably be inappropriate to have a musical score like those classics, but there is room for other elements that hint at the era.

Morricone's score has none of those referents.

Only because you said please, I won't bash the cop-hater.
