Best movie soundtracks

[wickednick]

I don't think this has been asked in a while.
What movie do you think have the best soundtracks.I like heavy metal so I tend to skew in that direction.
My personal favorites are: SFW,The Crow,The Blues Brothers, and Demon Knight.
SWF probably has the best soundtrack out of those.I mean comon it has GWAR.What could be better than that.

I'd have to go with Fight Club.  It has some of the best tunage I've ever head; all of it by the Dust Brothers.

The Big Lebowski's soundtrack is an obscuro record-geek's dream: Captain Beefheart, The Monks, Esquivel, Kraftwerk, plus some nice forgotten songs by Bob Dylan and Kenny Rogers.

Also, I've never seen it, but Freddy Got Fingered seems to have a damn good punk soundtrack, including Iggy Pop singing "I've Gotta Be Me!"

They have the Sex Pistols on there too.

Personally, I gotta go with the classics....Deep Red, any of the other Goblin stuff, Psycho, Taxi Driver.  I hate the way that movies today just have a random collection of songs, though it's worked for a handful of movies.  I remember the REPO MAN soundtrack fondly, though at least in that case they also had some music composed for the film.

But this generation isn't going to have anything that becomes part of the popular culture like the JAWS or PSYCHO theme--just a bunch of disposable pop songs that cause the movie to look dated and be thrown in the trash as soon as the musical fads change.

[raj]

The only sound track I have (and I didn't see the movie) is from The Decline and Fall of Western Civilization-- basically the early 1980's West Coast punk scene.  It's got X, Fear, and a bunch of others I can't recall.  Kick ass albumn.

"The One" with Jet Li. Saw it in the theaters and the sound track for the most part was awesome.
Also I like alot of the "Apocalypse Now" soundtrack.

[wickednick]

Danm I forgot Bill And Ted.Also I have to put a new one up for my favorite, Waynes World 1&2. The scene with them singing Bohemian Rhapsody is an absolute classic.

Oh yeah, and all of Carpenter's stuff.

[Julie]

Oh, I'm definitely with you there wyckednick on Wayne's World 1 & 2.....foxy....
