Buffalo '66 and Children of Men both featured loads of vintage prog.
The score to Ladyhawk was by Andrew Powell, longtime Alan Parsons collaborator.
The music for the sci-fi TV show Babylon 5 was composed by Christopher Franke of Tangerine Dream fame.
Miami Vice also featured some proggy music, including the main theme.
And has anyone heard Eddie Jobson's work for Nash Bridges?
I'm holding out for the Wilson-mixed 5.1 super-duper walletbuster special anniversary extra adjectives edition.
I have several of the CDs and they're quite nice, but you'd never know that they had any relationship with TD from the sound alone. Another TD-related soundtrack that I like is the one for the 80's remake of The Blob, by Michael Hoenig who was a member of TD for about a week.

Akira has some excellent proggy sounding stuff. Geinoh Yamashirogumi is the shit.

"The White Zone is for loading and unloading only. If you got to load or unload go to the White Zone!"
Some of Jerry Goldsmith’s stuff is pretty proggy, especially the Logan’s Run soundtrack, where he was experimenting a lot with synthesizers.
Also seek out his theme tune to Seconds from 1966, and prepare to be amazed! I believe that might be the first instance of an overdriven Hammond organ on a recording, years before the Canterbury guys got the idea.
More directly prog-related, there is Keith Emerson’s soundtrack to Dario Argento’s Inferno (1980).

We're trying to build a monument to show that we were here
It won't be visible through the air
And there won't be any shade to cool the monument to prove that we were here. - Gene Parsons, 1973
Anekdoten's own Nicklas Barker:
HuGo"Very, very nice," said a man in the crowd,
When the golden voice appeared.
She was gold alright, but then so is rust.
"Such a shame about the beard."

Since Goblin has been mentioned, I must of course point out another good horror soundtrack by an Italian progressive band,
that is Schock by Libra.
Well, there is none of the "improvise while the sequencers go chugga-chugga" stuff, but some of the synth bits do remind me of the early-80s TD. There is even more of that feel on a few tracks of Franke's Pax Terra, which recycles a few cues from Babs 5 and features two bit schlagery but fun orchestral rock songs for more prog-style bombast. Of course, it's a soundtrack to a literary series, so it doesn't really qualify here. I like it, though.
