  1. I found the soundtrack to the Japanese movie "Prophecies of Nostradamus" by accident recently, and I was so enchanted that I hunted down a copy of the movie and ordered the original uncut version from eBay. (Twenty minutes were cut out by Toho because of nudity and insensitivity to the victims of Hiroshima.) It's written and partially directed by Yoshimitsu Banno, director of "Godzilla Vs. The Smog Monster," so it's sort of a bad movie, but with underlying currents of brilliance. Anyway, the soundtrack is awesome, and at the same time probably the most ridiculous soundtrack I've ever heard. (The movie in a nutshell.) It's got 80s-sounding synth, 50s scifi theremin, Spaghetti Western trumpets, Medieval choir, and then it unexpectedly explodes into 70s wah-wah pedal guitar. This is a soundtrack that does whatever it wants. Google "Prophecies or Nostradamus Main Theme" and it should be your first result.
