Day of the Animals (Lalo Schifrin)

A group of hikers head for a weekend of hiking, only to discover too late that the deteriorating ozone layer has turned the animals into crazed killers. If you accept the limitations of the time (weak effects, TV-style cinematography) and meet it on its own level, this is a pretty decent thriller with a fine cast (Leslie Nielsen makes for an effective scumbag).

Lalo Schifrin provided a creepy main theme, as well as some ferocious attack music and an intermittent love theme.
