Something Wild-

I kinda liked it, but was ridiculed for years by all my friends who watched it with me…the soundtrack is amazing! Debbie Harry, Oingo Boingo, David Byrne with Celia Cruz, UB40…lots of great island style music.

You just reminded me of a really lousy film with a great soundtrack, _ **“Wild Things”** _

I remember seeing that film in the theater and hating every agonizing minute of such a lousy film (and yes, even the nude scenes couldn’t rescue it) but thinking, DAMN that’s a hell of a soundtrack.  
Ran out and bought it.  
Still listen to it and try to forget about the film completely.
