One of my most favorite genres of film scores. To add to your great list, there are of course perennial classics such as The Parallax View, The French Connection, Dirty Harry, Straw Dogs, The Killer Elite, Three Days of the Condor, Black Sunday (1977) and The Eiger Sanction.
Intrada currently has four top-notch thriller scores for sale: See No Evil, Duel, The Car and Capricorn One. Any fan of the genre's music should consider immediately buying those if they haven't already.
Some less appreciated favorites of mine: Gloria (Bill Conti); The Brotherhood of the Bell (Jerry Goldsmith); Eyes of Laura Mars (Artie Kane); Dead of Winter (Richard Einhorn); Deceived (Thomas Newman).
