Hello all,
I'm doing a research for the university about the influence of Science Fiction on electronic music.
So I'm searching for movies with electronic musical scores like Forbidden Planet but also bands, covers, video clips and night clubs with a very Sci-Fi style.
I will be glad if you have any names to share, any videos or covers to drop !
check out zombie zombie, john carpenter, gatekeeper.
Yeah I saw that Zombie Zombie played some Carpenter Classics but I didn't know Gatekeeper.
Edit : my mistake, I didn't know the band "zombi".

@ Marco Tulio : Yes, exactly ! 
I totally forgot that Andromeda strain contains electronic music score, thanks !
This definitely is not from this world:

check "welt am draht" by fassbinder. Can't think of a more intense electronic soundtrack.
concerning the model 500 + dreciya post:
be sure to look into 'Afrofuturism' and 'The Third Wave' by Alvin Toffler
Thanks !
Score100 : Do you have any link where I can listen to the soundtrack of Welt am Draht ?
also check the bbc synth brittanica docu.
theres some info in there aswell on literature and synth music.
Wow, I think there's tons of stuff! I mean futurism has always been a cornerstone in electro. At first completely sincere, now a sort of nostalgic retro-futurism in many cases.
besides the better-known stuff (ie bladerunner) maybe you will be interested in these movies and soundtracks:

If you can count video games in your "Science Fiction on electronic music" thesis, then Mass Effect (1 & 2) have some lovely atmospheric electronic music (not all of it is great though!)
With video games it will be a bit too much for now I think. It's not a thesis, just an hour oral presentation. So I need some video clip like dee dee jackson's, or I Wanna be your Lover by La Bionda.
Tek : The synth brittania documentary was very cool. Also, thanks for your vids Hysteric !
I also remember or found cool stuff by theses composers : Jerry Goldsmith (Tron, Logan's Run), Eduard Artemyev (Stalker, Solaris), Piero Umiliani, The BBC Workshop (for Blake's 7 and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), some ad by Raymond Scott (Bendix, the tomorow people) and some Bruce haack's albums (Hush Little Robot).
And of course a lot of new wave bands, some italo and space disco, Cybotron...
Yeah I know the soundtrack of "la planète sauvage" by Goraguer, very nice. A strange movie btw. But I think it's more kind of experimental/funk than purely electronic stuff.
But you just remind of Gandahar ! (Light Years in english) Thanks. haven't seen it in a while but I think there's electro music for the black robots and the big brain.
Is anyone here have seen "Les Maîtres du temps" by the same director ? (René Laloux) There are probably some synths too.
