The only terrifying thing about Event Horizon was the thought "how could anyone enjoy this dreck?" Tongue

As for music, Wolf Eyes' debut album Dread springs to mind. It's one of the darkest and awesomest avant-garde albums I've ever heard, yet it seems virtually unknown in the prog circles. Which is pretty strange, since they are much closer to rock and prog than Merzbow or Aube, both of whom get some attention here.
I'd post a youtube sample but it really needs to be heard on a good stereo, plus no one actually plays those anyway.

Flesh Consumed  "Harvesting Humans".
This is one of those few moments where I dare myself to plunge as deep as I can into the world of death metal.
To me it's those guitar solos that are the most horrifying parts of the song.

You are all wrong !

The darkest music there is can be found in ProgArchives and it is called Zeuhl. The darkest, most scary band which has ever excisted can also be found here. It is Shub Niggurath. The darkest album ever to be released is their Les Morts Vont Vite album. A real masterpiece in my books (I gave it 5 stars). I once played the Incipit Tragaedia track to some diehard black metal fans and musicians. They all  thought it was way more darker and extreme than any black metal album they had ever heard. They thought it was too dark even for them.

So there you have it: You cannot get anything darker than the Les Morts Vont Vite album.

Made me think of the Sabbath Assembly...  not really that darkest music I've heard but still very creepy...  And the story behind the music in interesting.
 
 
This song makes me think of that scene from the original "The Wicker Man" when Britt Ekland is dancing naked and singing in the hotel room, tempting Edward Woodward in the next room.

Just try and find darker stuff than that.
