What movies have the best soundtracks?

Post by Moustache_Bash »

Original or not, I don't care.

I love John Carpenter's stuff:

Morricone with The Thing and the Dollars Trilogy.

Easy Rider.

Dig! (although that's slightly cheating...)

Woodstock (...but this is definitely cheating.)
good deals are here.
flesh couch is here.

Also with Danger: Diabolik and...well just about everything Morricone does is magic. The Exorcist II: The Heretic has one of the best scores I've ever heard IMO, but the movie is un-fucking-watchable :thumb:

Some of my all-time favorites:
The Taking of Pelham One Two Three - David Shire (This one may qualify as my all-time favorite score, but it's REALLY hard to chose just one)
Vertigo, Psycho, The Day The Earth Stood Still, North by Northwest - Bernard Herrmann
Godzilla - Akira Ifukube
Goldfinger, The Ipcress File, Thunderball - John Barry
Yojimbo - Masaru Sato

Knew you'd have some excellent suggestions for this thread.

That's one of my faves too.

YES! I found this on vinyl and was far more excited than I should have been.

My favorite:

I also REALLY like the soundtrack from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre

This. So, so hard. I love it both in the context of the movie and on it's own.

The Akira score is mindblowing- tied with Ghost in the Shell for favorite anime/score for animated film.

OK, I'll throw out some more:

Yojimbo
Biutiful
The Thin Blue Line
Latcho Drom
Genghis Blues

The soundtracks to Jim Jarmusch films are usually pretty great. I especially like:

Night on Earth
Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
Broken Flowers
The Limits of Control
