Bruno Nicolai -
Too often seen as being in the shadow of Morricone.

In light of a number of strong choices (Folk, Lewis, Licht, Scott, Stein, Talgorn), let me add:
Terry Plumeri. His scores for "Final Judgment", "Mr. Atlas", "Stepmonster" and especially "Scarecrows" are marvelous.
On the strength of his rejected "Neighbors" score, Tom Scott surely merits a mention.
And I can't say this enough: Amotz Plessner ("Addams Family Reunion", "Deal of a Lifetime") deserves more attention than he gets.

Patrick Gowers and Howard Blake. These guys sound pretty good to me and are instant buys when and if I see something of theirs that I don't already own. Sir Peter Maxwell Davies is very good, too, only he hasn't done that much in film- our loss.

In the Golden Age, Roy Webb -- by FAR.
In the modern age, Shirley Walker. She should have had a huge film career.
Living? Well there are loads of overlooked talented people. Wouldn't know how to narrow it down.

Stanley Myers. What a talent. I say underrated because so much of his vast output has never been commercially released (The Witches, The Night of the Following Day, all those Peter Walker scores, etc.), and so many of his great lp soundtracks have never been released on cd: No Way To Treat a Lady, Ulysses, Take a Girl Like You, The Raging Moon, Otley, and Prick Up Your Ears.

Robert F. Brunner. I love his scores for various Disney films from my youth (especially the Dexter Riley series).
