I grew up watching the 1984 version of this silent film that was put to 80s music (Freddy Mercury of Queen, Pat Benetar, etc).

Fond memories, thanks to my father.

Came here to pretty much say the same thing. Think I saw it on MuchMusic Canada... when they used to play music.

Maybe H.G. would've rocked out to it.

There was an (IIRC) electro-blues soundtracked version on YouTube a few years back, but I can't seem to find it now...

Not sure what electro-blues is, but the wiki page lists some alternative soundtracks.

Here's one that might be described as electro-blues...
