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

)

Hammer Horror, Kate Bush.

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

"Mars Attacks" by The Misfits

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.

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...
