I like the Beowulf theme song, it’s of war, power, and strength. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se7xsM9qZpU&feature=related

Erm. I don’t think I could pick one easily. I like Moby’s “Extreme Ways” of which the Bourne films adopted. I also love the soundtrack behind the Bourne films :)

Johnny Cash’s Dawn of the Dead opening. Perfect.

I always really liked the music from John Sayles’ movie The Secret of Roan Inish.

Jimmy Cliff’s The Harder They Come from the film of the same name.

“The Harder They Come” sounds like the title of a porno movie.

It“s not a porn! In fact was this movie that was the single biggest promoter of reggae music outside of Jamaica, introducing it to a world starving for truly great music. It made the genre universally popular. No, it wasn’t Bob Marley that made reggae famous throughout the world. It was Jimmy Cliff.

Glad we got that straightened up.

I’m serious when I’m discussing reggae and Jimmy Cliff.

I love the theme from The Shining… I know it’s a classical piece with some crazy yelling thrown over it but it’s awesome.

I pretty much love every theme written by Danny Elfman .
And there are a lot of them, let me tell you. Beetlejuice, Batman, Edward Scissorhands, The Nightmare Before Christmas… the list goes on and on.

The Star Wars theme, by John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra

@McBean: Thanks for reminding me that I am currently grappling with how to phrase a question that asks how Edward Scissorhands would “pleasure himself,” sexually…

El_Cadejo's avatar

@Mcbean Danny Elfman is awesome, pretty much anything directed by Tim Burton has music from Danny Elfman.

@JackAdams i saw this about a year ago, Edward Penishands it was so horrible you couldnt help but laugh most of the movie. The best scene is when he trys to eat spaghetti

Ever since I saw the movie, the title song from Rosemary’s Baby, simple though it may be, has been a favourite.
