Every 80's italian soundtrack is a gem. Firstly they usually feature some classic rock and pop songs from eighties classics as diverse as iron maiden, Billy idol and the smiths. The music composed for the score itself is usually fantastic, phenomena is a great example of this as is the keith emerson stuff on the church and inferno, also I rate the soundtrack to opera which veers from classical to heavy rock at the drop of a hat.
One of the things anchor bay used to do many moons ago was release stuff with the soundtrack as a bonus on the limited edition versions hence I still oen my ltd edition dvd's of opera and suspiria. I think companies should do this more often with these movies!
