I really like the Grosse Point Blank soundtrack (and the film too),
also way way back there was a film called "Party Animal" which had loads of great stuff from Buzzcocks, Chelsea, Fleshtones etc... dont think they released it as a soundtrack though.

I loved Repo Man! But my favorite soundtracks are way more mundane: Flashdance, Footloose, Against All Odds, Fame, Back to the Future.

The best of the best soundtracks though were Vision Quest, and the Color Purple (which is also my favorite movie of

I'm with ekahob on the two "Valley Girl" soundtracks.

Also, Jonathan Demme had two great 80s soundtracks, "Something Wild" (1986) and "Married to the Mob" (1988).

jfiber got me thinking with his picks, so I went out to the vinyl monstrosity in my garage and grabbed all my soundtracks. What surprised me is that the ST to "Married To The Mob" has "Goodbye Horses" on it, and I either forgot or never knew. Thanks for

I DEFINITELY have to agree with jfiber's choice for "Married to the Mob". I just grabbed my old copy of the soundtrack and have to say it's really good. Haven't listened to it in years!

The best 80s movie soundtrack ever was for New Wave Hookers. This porno had a soundtrack by the Plugz. It's about a bunch of freaky hookers who go sex crazy when they here loud music by the Plugz. This movie was pulled from circulation because a famous po
