    Chorus used in movies involving he devil or evil.
    Im looking for the classical piece used all the time in movies when there is something evil or exciting or devilish happening. Im NOT thinking fugue by JS Bach... I don't know the word as they are in another language, but the beat is something like:

    Hee hee ho ho
    Hee hee ho ho...

    Does that make sense? Lol... help please!

    All I can think of is that a diminished chord works really well for scenes that require some kind of suspense. I can think of many pieces that use the diminished chord or chords. Even the minor chord used with certain beats can be appropriate. But, you are looking for one piece. Correct? If so, then I don't think that there is one, certain piece.
