I mean the music made specially for the film, not songs on general release in the charts or otherwise by pop/rock/whatever artists.
Some to consider :
Predator 1 + 2 - Alan Silvestri I think did this, extremely atmospheric and fits perfectly with the action.
Terminator 2 - Superb soundtrack, adds to the whole atmosphere and sounds great cranked up to the max
Lock Stock - A lot of the music on this film is by famous artists, but the bits that aren't included on the soundtrack CD are very good
Escape from new York - Old skool film. John Carpenter films always have superb music, very much in the style that was common at the time (early 80s) Also, 'the thing' had some incredibly eerie music.
Aliens - nuff said, great stuff

I always find listening to film music on it's own slightly strange, as it's out of context, but for mood music Ry Cooder's Paris, Texas is amazing (he's done loads of soundtracks, but this is his best). I also like David Holmes' two Soderberg soundtracks - Out Of Sight and Ocean's Eleven 'cos they groove like hell and Aimee Mann's songs for the Magnolia soundtrack are also great - they complement the film perfectly, as does the score.
Regarding some of the other stuff mentioned so far in this thread: Alan Silvestri did both the Predator and Back To The Future scores, Emiliana Torrini has an album worth getting called Love In The Time Of Science and to spookily link this with another post the album was co-written and produced by Roland Orzabal who was in Tears For Fears who appear (and are covered) on the Donnie Darko soundtrack!

The (new) Italian Job has a great soundtrack to it.
The Untouchables had a superb soundtrack.

Ridley Scott's " Bladerunner " score really catches the atmosphere of the film spot on.

Iris is a great song. Black balloon is also a good song. Not sure if that's from City of Angels too though.
