Most hitchcock films have great sound tracks. Same goes for the other famous brit-charlie chaplin.

Judgement Night in my opinion had some really great ideas with the whole combining rap artists with metal artists.

And in my teenage years, The Crow's soundtrack fit so extremely well with the movie.

Altered States - composer John Corigliano's soundtrack is also available as a concert piece that imho stands up well against the creme de la creme of post-tonal 20th Century western art music. But in the context of the film it's wonderful to hear how evocative, atmospheric, and unsettling a vocabulary one can get without resorting to electronics.

Also, there's one brief scene in the movie LA Story that has always struck me as one of the greatest moments in soundtracks ever: Steve Martin is sitting on an airplane, it's raining outside, he's about to leave this woman that maybe perhaps he thinks he loves, there's no dialog...and the score just gradually swells until the volume is INCREDIBLY FREAKING LOUD, like way louder than any other sound that's occurred up to this point in the entire film. Fascinating effect, wonderful moment.

+1000000000 for Superfly and Shaft

The Big Lebowski has some really cool/unorthodox tracks mixed in with some classic CCR.

The Man in Me – Bob Dylan
Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) – Kenny Rogers & The First Edition
Hotel California (Spanish Cover) - The Gypsy Kings
Tumbling Tumbleweeds – Sons of the Pioneers

Just to name a few

Almost any Scorcese film has an awesome soundtrack. Though for some reason, he uses Gimme Shelter in like 5 movies. Goodfellas is probably his best. Other cool soundtracks: Woodstock, 2001, Zero Effect (Greyboy Allstars did the soundtrack), Wes Anderson's movies: Rushmore, Bottle Rocket, Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic (almost all Bowie in Portuguese plus Search & Destroy by the Stooges). ETA possibly my favorite soundtrack ever: O Brother Where Art Thou? I classify this as the best musical I've ever seen (pretty much the only one I actually like).
