Basil Poledouris (August 21, 1945 – November 8, 2006) was an American composer of Greek descent.He was noted for producing scores for some of the most popular movies of the late 20th century, including Red Dawn (1984), Conan the Barbarian (1982), Free Willy, Starship Troopers and The Hunt for Red October. Known for his epic, symphonic scores, he is frequently regarded as one of the best film composers of all time. Many of his work is famous in its own right, with his scores for Conan and RoboCop (which featured men banging on anvils) being particularly noteworthy.He also had a very small number of acting credits, most notably as a Klingon, a Redshirt, and an Ekosian trooper on various episodes of Star Trek (the original series). | |

Cult Soundtrack | |
| Basil Poledouris (Music) / int_225527db | comment |
Cult Soundtrack: His music for Conan the Barbarian (1982) is famously known for causing hair to grow on listeners in previously unknown places, along with causing heavy metal fans to develop a hankering for classical music. It's also considered one of the all-time great soundtracks, despite the film itself being a total Camp Classic. Intrada issued the complete score in 2012. His score to Cherry 2000 was so popular among film scoring fans that the album used to go for over $1,000 in online auditions (the score was so rare that Poledouris didn't even have a copy until John Waters gave him his personal copy when they did Serial Mom together). A pair of reissues have since remedied this problem but it's still one of Poledouris' more popular scores. | |

Rated M for Manly: If you wanted someone to do the music for a bloody, meat-headed action flick, Poledouris was the man. | |
