Were discussing it at work, mine have to be Apocalypse Now, Good Morning Vietnam, Platoon and Blade Runner - bit of a theme going on there!
scarface
Quadrophenia.
flash! (aaaaaah)
Repo Man
Rocky Horror Picture Show
BTW I have Apocolypse Now soundtrack on 12" EP, Album and CD
Garden State for sure. It made me go out and buy about 7 albums to follow up some of the bands.
Mulholland Drive, in fact most David Lynch/Angelo Badalamenti stuff.
I'll be the boring obsessive and nominate a bike video: Sprung 3.
They got a mate to make most of the soundtrack, guy calls himself Smoove. The album was never officially released because of the number of unlicensed samples (i think), but i got a burn of a copy from someone. After the slightly dated sounding first minute or so it turns into an entire album of chilled funk/electronica.
Guaranteed to relax me when the deskjob is getting too much, and has born one hell of a lot of repeated listens without getting boring.
quadrophenia
Blues brothers. No competition.
big lebowski
syaying onna Coen brothers tip, oh brother where art thou? saw me going out the following day and purchasing the soundtrack.
also Marie Antionette and lost in translation have great semi goth/shoegazer soundtracks.
90s bouldering video - The Real Thing. Kicks off with my favourite ever dance track - Marmion Schonenberg - before a descent into eclectic electronic off Ninja Tunes - ace!
Odd Man Out keeps popping up on my iPod and reminds of younger days 😆

trainspotting
pulp fiction, or any quentin tarantino film. he's bloody good at getting the music just right.
I'm not really a fan of U2, but i think hold me, kill me, kiss me, thrill me (the song they did for one of the batman films) is a cracking song.
Paris, Texas- awsome slide guitar playing by Ry Cooder.
Blues brothers, followed closely by Meet Joe black.
the good the bad and the ugly especially -L'estasi Dell'oro (The Ecstasy Of Gold)
once upon a time in the west

requiem for a dream

I'm with diggers on this one, love all the Badalmenti soundtracks - Twin Peaks theme is my fave.
"The harder they come" is great too and still gets played regularly in the car.
top gun! some of the best riding music i know
I love the music to The Shining, terryfying.
Favourite soundtrack would be from Amadeus or Fight Club.
the harder they come
Either Pi or Human Traffic, although the Requiem for a Dream remix project is also most excellent!

Pi
Excalabur
Assault on Precinct 13 (Original one)
Garden State, Lost in Translation

Get Carter - the awesome double bass intro makes you feel menacing just listening to it.
(anyone who likes this could get hold of a decent compilation called Get Budd, Roy Budd did a lot of funky soundtracks and is sampled all over the place these days)
Babel - Gustavo Santoallala's spooky guitar stuff brings a tear to the eye.
Anything by John Barry

+1 for Oh Brother Where Art Thou

Pulp Fiction
Breaking Glass
Any thing by Enio Moricone

Good call on Paris, Texas above. I prefer Southern Comfort though, much more dark and brooding.
But, the best ever soundtrack is

The Crow

Most of my favourites have already been mentioned, so i'll add these:
The Italian Job
Dusk till Dawn
🙂
"Christine" is great for old rock'n'roll (and George Thoroughgood)
24 Hour Party People
i love john carpenters music for the original haloween
basic synth but well scary
also a bit diluted by over use but where would "Jaws" be without the music
[i]Love[/i] the music for eternal sunshine of the spotless mind - the beck cover of "i need your loving ... "(may not be actual title)makes be blub like a big girl
Restless Natives
Yes! John carpenter - The Warriors

se7en - the soundtrack is all kinds off odd noises - sounds like evil
the third man
raging bull
Manhatten
Blue Velvet - that song can never be listened to now without thinking about the film
Some of the old Props bmx vids have great soundtracks but failing that i've gotta go with lock stock and two smoking barrels or trainspotting!!
I'd have to go with Pi, Layer Cake and probably Top Gun. All great compilations of tunes.
Also:
Ghost Dog

Around Midnight
Wildstyle
my 'Good morning Vietnam' tape was well worn from repeat playing

Morricone, yes! A Fistful of Dollars is my fave one I've heard.
3rd (or possibly 4th or 5th, i can't be arsed to read the thread) The Big Lebowski.
Blaxploitation films usually have amazing soundtracks. Black Caesar and Superfly are two of my faves.
L'Histoire De Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg is technically a soundtrack (to a TV special) and is such an awesome record, I want to run home and listen to it right now.
Anyone who likes Bullit should check out Piero Piccioni's soundtrack to [url=

Some good ones here already. I'm also a big fan of The Wicker Man soundtrack...
Anything by Sergio Leone especially For a Few Dollars More and The Good the Bad and the Ugly.
I'm hung up on "Blue Powder" 2009
