- The Back To The Future trilogy (1985 – 1990) What else was going to top the list? Back To The Future remains the composer’s crowning achievement, not just for the mind-bending intricacy of its orchestrations, but also for how the series hangs together musically, motifs and rhythmic ideas criss-crossing each of the three movies.
- Predator (1987) The seeds of all future Silvestri action scores were sewn here. John McTiernan’s jungle-set action-thriller starring Arnold Schwarzenegger is a terse blast in testosterone, and demanded a tightly focused score to go with it.
- The Abyss (1989) Silvestri’s only collaboration with James Cameron drew out the best in him. The movie’s oppressive underwater environment, combined with its assortment of near-angelic aliens, allow the composer to paint in intriguing shades of light and shade, as carefully judged synth textures gradually give way to passages of awe-inspiring choral beauty, especially during the climax.
- Judge Dredd (1995) Sly Stallone may have made the mistake of taking the Judge’s helmet off in this much-maligned dystopian actioner, but Silvestri never puts a foot wrong as far as the score is concerned.
