Doesn’t matter if the movie is crap
Love the I know that you did last summer soundtrack
Offspring , l7 , toad the wet sprocket, soul asylum, our lady peace
Batman and robin is great
Goo goo dolls , bone thugs and harmony , smashing pumpkins
Pretty woman is also awesome
Not including concert films: Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Dirty Dancing, Footloose, Back to the Future, Batman, Top Gun, The Bodyguard, Pretty Woman
Absolute Beginners is an example of one of the worst films with the best soundtracks.
Lady in the Water.
Returner.
The Brave Little Toaster.
Leon.
The Land Before Time
Jaws.
Not sure about the order but these are cemented on my list. The first would be my example of a crappy movie with not a crappy soundtrack, although the music almost makes up for the rest and makes it good, i don't even mind rewatching it thanks to the score.
Pretty Woman is an awesome sound track!
shareDecades ago, the soundtracks to Cat People, Bladerunner, Vamp and Fright Night made for some pretty good background music during sex... does that count?

Seduction Surrender by Grace Jones from Vamp is a decent song. Fright Night has a great soundtrack all round.
shareThe Fright Night soundtrack sounds a bit dated to me now with its 80s-synth influence although I still like the seduction songs.
Composer Brad Fiedel also composed the instantly recognizable 'da da da da-dum' hook from the Terminator films... I still play the theme song to that when I'm working out.
"I Know What You Did Last Summer" and you leave out Kula Shaker?
I gotta go with "Beauty and the Beast" and "Aladdin".
I love that song! Hush hush ... great song for a slasher flick. Although in Canada that was all I heard from Kula
sharei've never really been into movie scores, but i really love some of ennio morricone's classic soundtracks.
in particular, i like his scores for the once upon a time in america & the mission.
gabriel's oboe from the mission is an all-time favourite of mine.

I consciously left out scores from my best soundtrack choices.
In terms of best score, I'd pick E.T., Vertigo, 28 Days Later and Back to the Future, among others.
i picked scores because i simply couldn't think of any true pop soundtracks i enjoyed.
but i just thought of one!
david bowie's soundtrack for christine f was one of the first bowie albums i bought. it wasn't new material. it was just a hodge-podge of material from is station to station & berlin era. but it's a great compilation of stuff from that era, and also includes the german language version of heroes - for the longest time, that was the only version of heroes i knew.
The first mission impossible soundtrack kicked ass too
