Oh, wow, what a shame. His music for _ST: The Motionless Picture_ was its best feature, especially the Klingon and Ilia themes.

_Planet of the Apes_ made a HUGE impression on me when I was a kid, and I loved the _Patton_ theme too.

The Klingon theme is so memorable, I want to watch TMP now for that and the theme after this thread.
