Shaun of the Dead

[DanMad1977]

I still get the chills when I hear the clashing sound from the Terminator movies.

Rocky music gets my blood pumping still to this day.

[Flash Gordon]

Highlander
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword

[Scott Taylor]

Soundtrack to Valley Girl (1983) is pretty good, for afficianados of the early 1980s music scene. The only thing really missing from it is something from Black Flag or the DKs.

[Panic]

Highlander. Only soundtrack I need.

From the OP:

Doesn't have to be a string of pop hits - it could be a musical score. But it had to have been released as an official soundtrack.

Highlander never had an official soundtrack released as far as I know - many of the tracks are on the album A Kind of Magic, but that's not an official soundtrack album. Which is a shame as Kamen's score and the Queen tracks are awesome.

Is Flash Gordon released as an official soundtrack?
