The title says it all. It’s one of the greatest sci-fi movies ever made and what’s fun about this one is that the music plays such a big part. Everyone remembers the music from this movie made by Vangelis. It has a sci-fi sound to it like no other and it sounds just as good as the movie looks. The haunting synths of the End Title, the sexy sounds of the Love Theme, it’s all here for you to enjoy now and forever.

Thanks! What about the soundtrack? I can’t decide whether the movie is better than the soundtrack or vice versa.

I love this movie! I didn’t pay attention to the music when I watched it the first time, but I am inspired to watch it again and listen more closely.

I think the music have gotten more famous than the movie, but I might be wrong. Anyway, the music and movie is amazing.

This is still an outstandingly great soundtrack and quite unlike any other I have ever heard; especially for an SF film.

Yep, it’s unique and timeless.

This is one of my favourite films ever, and I love the score so much! It was so ahead of its time, and it was the first time I ever thought that the score was perfect for the film and could not be used in any other film ~ it just would not work. I am so glad you posted this, anything honouring my fave films is so great.

Yeah, it’s quite amazing how ahead of its time this movie was and of course the soundtrack. I recently got the 3CD collection with unreleased music from the movie and I love it.
