Tweeter and the Monkeyman
100%. I always thought I was alone in thinking it.

"Heart of a dancer" by the happy fits could make a fun tenacious d sort of movie
"Hell's comin' with me" by poor man's poison would be a classic revenge western
"Big town banky blaine's rockabilly barbeque" by bear ghost could be an interesting look at class war if you could pull it off
Oh and "A tale they won't believe" by captain tractor for man turning to cannibalism to survive

Holy shit. Never expected to find another person who has heard of Captain Tractor on Lemmy of all places. They have a long history with me and my college years (late nineties, early 2000s)

I prefer the captain tractor version of the last saskatchewan pirate that's how I found the band but the other song came up on it's own through spotify recommendations

Rime of the Ancient Mariner
different genre but related is "the mariner's revenge song"

I wouldn't mind seeing what they could do with "East River Revolution" by District 7

Dream Theater - Metropolis.
Alternatively, Metropolis pt II - Scenes from a Memory, if you find an ambitious producer.Honestly Scenes from a Memory would make a great movie, and now I have to go listen to it again

Rhapsody, the band all of their songs progressively tell an epic story that I would love to see in movie form.
Alternatively Nightfall in Middle-Earth from Blind Guardian, love the Silmarillion would love to see a movie about it.

- Yours Truly, 2095 - Electric Light Orchestra
- Underneath the Radar - Underworld
- Silent Running - Mike and the Mechanics
I'd love to see a movie based on Silent Running. But I'm afraid it's shaping out to be a documentary...
(The existing movie of the same name has nothing in common with the song, but it's worth watching anyway.)

I always imagine All Along the Watchtower as a 1980's fantasy movie along the lines of Red Sonya or The Beastmaster.

Yes, Wikipedia says:
Rutherford named the song after the film Silent Running "because I remembered that film so well, and our song had a spacey feel to it."

Watsky, et al - Exquisite Corpse
For best results this should be cheesy B-movie as hell, the song really leans into it I think
