I just heard a new track today by DJ Evol called 'Texas Chainsaw'. made me think how many other tunes named after films there are.

Deep Blue something - 'Breakfast At Tiffanys' is one.. (obviously they don't have to be good songs Smile)

We must have a psychopathic deviant in the hospital.
Maybe we should report it to the police?
No that's out of the question.  A police investigation would give us a bad name.

Hammer Horror, Kate Bush.

I know it's a company not a film but it's close...

"Mars Attacks" by The Misfits
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY5Vo_gYqjk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY5Vo_gYqjk</a>

Granted, it was a card series prior, but I believe they wrote it after the movie came out.  Hell, a majority, if not all, of the Misfits songs are named after movies.

Captain Planet is the most useless superhero ever.  His weakness: pollution.  Hopefully nobody litters or drives by as he's attempting to fight crime.

Mortal Kombat, Utah Saints...they made it for the film not the video game. So it counts.

Primal Scream did an album called 'Vanishing Point' after the film, but the title track - where they say "vanishing point" a lot in the chorus - is actually called 'Kowalski' after the main character. so it kind of counts...

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
