You can always count on the man to have a bad ass track to play over the opening credits to his films.

Reservoir Dogs - 'Little Green Bag' by George Baker

Pulp Fiction - 'Misirlou' by Dick Dale and the Del Tones

Jackie Brown - 'Across 110th Street' by Bobby Womack

Kill Bill - 'Bang Bang' by Nancy Sinatra

Death Proof - 'The Last Race' by Jack Nitzsche

Inglourious Basterds - 'The Green Leaves of Summer' by Dimitri Tiomkin

Django Unchained - 'Django' by Luis Bacalov

The Hateful Eight - 'L’Ultima Diligenza di Red Rock' by Ennio Morricone

Personally, my vote goes to 'Across 110th Street'. Absolutely love those opening credits even if it is taken straight from The Graduate.

What's your pick?

"Across 110th Street" at the beginning of Jackie Brown is one of the greatest song choices in cinema history.

I so love love love Luis Bacalov's "Django".. it's absolutely heartbreaking although I prefer it in the original 1966 flick while dude is dragging the coffin through the mud..

My favourite then will actually be Ennio Morricone's "L’Ultima Diligenza di Red Rock" because it's just too badass
