This is a piece with much suspense in it's music. Some people has cut the introduction movements for Horror and monsters movies. If you hear this music complete, you will see that horror flicks use parts of this piece but it's not intented for such purpose.
Most agree like me, that this piece tells a story of the battle between good and evil.
