Movie was OK or bad but the soundtrack was awesome?

A boring, fairly uninteresting (though pretty to look at) film with one of the damn finest movie scores I've ever heard.

Although I personally love both the film and score, I think people would consider ID4 in this category.
David Arnold's score for it turned me into a film music fan.

Shock Treatment. I dunno why, but I love the songs from it. They're like an 80s music version of Rocky Horror. The movie itself is pretty terrible, but I have an affection for Jessica Harper in it.

Xanadu
Another flick in this category might be Bill And Ted's Excellent Adventure, although I personally think the movie is Excellent!

I'd also like to add that Jerry Goldsmith got robbed at the Academy Awards for his Star Trek: The Motion Picture score. Ilia's Theme is one of the best musical pieces I've ever heard in a movie.

Agree with "Threesome" (unwatchable mess). I also liked the soundtracks to:
"The Craft"
"Cool World"
"Magnolia"
"Cruel Intentions"
"Showgirls" of all things (with music by Bowie, Siouxsie, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, No Doubt).
