Fair enough. But then I MUST post this theme from the absolutely most fantastic, stunningly well written, strange, deep, dark, exciting and most character bonding fantasy game in the history of the universe, namely Planescape Torment

Yes! This has some very cool electronic textures.


Mr.Robot ( a TV series) has a strong synth-based soundtrack, which I enjoyed more than the series.

Blade Runner was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thread title. Chariots of Fire, though I don't think it holds up as well just in terms of style. And then there's Beverly Hills Cop with the theme that I had to play every time I was in front of a synth from 1984-1986:

I'd forgotten about Dark Star. I had taped the whole movie from our crappy TV to a crappy casette deck and listened to it many times. :D

If I recall correctly, there's a credit to 'ARP Synthesizers' in the film's end titles.

I dig Escape from New York

What other director also made the music for his movies, I think very few except Carpenter.

Early 60s Doctor Who. Awesome Radiophonic Workshop soundtrack.

Wow, there are some great suggestions I need to go back and revisit. Anyone else like Beyond the Black Rainbow?
