A few years later, rapper and producer Wyclef Jean happened to wake up from a nap to see the end of "Sleepwalkers" playing on TV -- which is how he first heard "Boadicea." Jean was immediately inspired to sample the piece, which eventually became the Fugees song "Ready or Not."

In the movie's ending scene, a human named Tanya Robertson (with the help of her cat, Clovis) survives an attack from the two Sleepwalkers and is in a state of shock and exhaustion. The 1987 song "Boadicea," by Irish singer Enya, plays during this scene.

In 1999, American rapper Pharoahe Monch released his debut single, titled "Simon Says," as the lead single from his debut studio album “Internal Affairs.” The track, produced by Monch, samples a snippet of a track from the "Gojira tai Mosura" score.

The 19th film in the Godzilla franchise -- as well as the highest-grossing Japanese film of 1993 -- sees the country of Japan caught in the middle of a three way battle between Godzilla, Mothra, and her male moth counterpart Battra.

During one particular scene in the movie, the Wizard (Richard Pryor) is exposed to be an ordinary man with no magical powers. It’s from this scene that Kendrick Lamar’s track “Euphoria” — one of the many 2024 diss tracks aimed by Lamar at rapper Drake — samples Pryor’s dialogue.
