Eerie, Ethereal, Moody, Involving Soundtracks

I'm looking for more of the REAL GOOD, maybe unheard-of stuff.
Really got hooked on Asche & Spencer's *Monster's Ball*, along with some tunes from *Dead Man Walking*, *Johnny Handsome*, etc.
Music that completely takes you into a far-away galaxy, lets you concentrate on loneliness, yet ................. you want to crank the volume way-up and dwell within it.

Hunt down the soundtrack to Donnie Darko. Trust me, this soundtrack is exactly what the title of this thread describes.

Hey, the suggestions keep getting better !!
*Dreamy* or *Worldly* would have been a more appropiate word than eerie.
In the sense of a slightly more *Atmospheric* music WITHOUT a boring type rhythm machine.
Makes you want to listen over and over.

"Finding Forrester" soundtrack fits this bill nicely. Music of Miles Davis, Bill Frissel, and a version of "Over the Rainbow/Wonderful World" by the late "Great Iz" that is just great. Like Eva Cassidy, he was a young (although morbidly obese) singer with a remarkable voice. He was very young when he died but was very popular in Hawaii, where he lived.

Ryuichi Sakamoto's theme for Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (starring David Bowie) is hard to forget.

The Requiem for a Dream soundtrack fits the bill of dark, eerie, and absorbing. Disturbing movie, with a musical score that's just as dark and chilling.
