I have found that Quentin Tarantino is very good at blending music into movies in general. He chooses great tracks, puts them in appropriate situations and then really gets the maximum worth from them.
Kill Bill was obviously a fantastic soundtrack (although no comment specifically as to Carrie since I haven't seen that movie in ages and don't have a copy laying around). Pulp Fiction had Jungle Boogie, Son of a Preacher Man, Girl, You'll be a Woman Soon, etc.
Probably the only (modern) movie I can think of at this moment that used music better than Pulp Fiction or Kill Bill was Donnie Darko.

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
