Saturday Music for the 8th Dimension

The ending credits sequence at the conclusion of THE ADVENTURES OF BUCKAROO BANZAI ACROSS THE 8th DIMENSION was one of those type of ending credits sequences that made you not want to leave your seat and return to your mode of transportation to return home ... well, at least THE FUTURIST! did not want to leave. In the style of a Fellini film, the entire cast of characters that helped save the world emerge, one by one, to perform a triumphant march, of sorts, through some kind of viaduct. It provided an odd and cheerful curtain closing for the strange sci-fi Doc Savage serial inspired antics of the motion picture. And the ending music was full of 80s sound styling and quite playful.
