Soundtracks that stand-out for me are: Psycho 3 (the main theme was sampled by Aim for Cold Water Music - its beautiful yet slightly creepy, so unusual for a derivative horror-film!), Susperia, Midnight Cowboy (probably my favourite, actually), Betty Blue (main piano theme, and weird fairground music), Irreversible (the queasy-sounding loop and distorted beat) then the more obvious choices: A Clockwork Orange, Taxi Driver, Manhattan, Once Upon A Time In America.
Christiana F. too if I can name one soundtrack which isn't original. It uses lots of Bowie's ambient songs from Low and Heros to good effect.
