If you like Mullhullond Drive you should get soundtrack to Twin Peaks. Dead set classic. Not strickly a film i know but pretty filmic.
I quite like Air's soundtrack to Virgin Suicides to.
Um what else the soundtrack to City of God brazilian film is very good. Though not sure how much is orginal score and how much just groovy brazilian tunes.
Run Lola Run is pretty cute if you like cheesy techno. Brilliant in the film.
Rza's work on Jamursch's "ghost dog" is great to. But hard to get hold of.
I also personally love the scores to all of Hal Hartely's stuff. There used to be a comp of the early stuff (simple men, trust) and the Amateuer soundtrack is a combination of his 'ned rifle' composing and some nice indie tunes (think polly jean harvey, Red House Painters, etc).

"The Taking of Pelham 123" (awesome early 70's cop shit by David Shire...great weird time signatures too)
"The Planet of the Apes" (suitably otherworldly Jerry Goldsmith stuff)
"The Wind & the Lion" (also a Goldsmither, but drenched in Arabic, string-swept desert majesty)
"Get Carter" (Roy Budd's finest hour --- the Michael Caine version, by the way, not the abortive Sly Stallone mistake).
Despite Dire Straits being a big bag of rancid Haggis, Mark Knopfler's soundtrack to "Local Hero" is quite good -- tho' it gets a bit newagey in spots.
Giorgio Moroder's "Midnight Express" score is, as they say in Turkish prisons, "the Shizzit!"
Angelo Badalamenti's score for "The City of Lost Children" is truly haunting.
Don't forget Wendy Carlos' "A Clockwork Orange," and check out the afore-mentioned Neil Young score to "Dead Man" too.

Nino Rota : Fellini's Casanova and Satyricon
Serge Gainsbourg: Cannabis
Can't go wrong with Vangelis' Bladerunner soundtrack, either. Just make sure you get Vangelis' original score and not the crappy orchestral version that floated around for years.
Also, you can't go wrong with Morricone (usually). Try some of the comps on Dagored of his 70's Italian B-movie stuff, like Mondo Morricone, Morricone 2000/2001.
