What if they fixed the music?

So I just watched this movie for the first time in 28 years. The first time I was a child up past my bedtime, and mystified by cool movie I'd never heard of before. But this time I was surprised to see so much potential go to waste.

The soundtrack in particular seemed really, really dated. Though there were moments when it shined.

Anyway it got me thinking, that they ought to try redoing the music with an orchestral version of the original Tangerine Dreams sound track. What do you all think?

Scrapping the horrid anachronistic soundtrack isn't going to fix the abysmal 1970s BBC cinematography and internationally cornball acting. This movie is a loss from start to finish.

IMO the soundtrack is 1/3 the reason I think this movie is so great. It has an amazing 80's epic feel to it that movies these days have lost sight of. I don't know of even one movie made passed 2000 that has an epic feel to it. Especially from the soundtrack.
