- jackmeat13 grudnia 2025My quick rating - 5.1/10. I had completely forgotten about this flick. Wonder if it stood the test of time. A slew of '80s horror popped on Radarr, so why not check some of them out? It opened up with a song by Lizzy Borden, which I actually remembered straight away LOL. Although the band playing it was covered in some really poor makeup, not looking glam rock, but more like some form of undead creature. This scene with the two teens on the streets plays out like it is going to break out into a musical at any second. A heavy metal band comes to town to practice before embarking on a major tour, but the band has far more devilish plans. There are some forms of demons that are going to take the "fans" over and transform them into their minions sent to kill the parents and possibly every other adult. The creature effects in this one are silly, but at times quite fu,n as we remember days when CGI wasn't something every 12-year-old was playing with at home. The practical monsters still have a unique look to them. How the band is possessing the teens in the audience by sounding like Bang Tango is beyond me, but throw logistics out and play along, and you may have a bit of fun. I mean, the singer's name is Damien, so I am not sure what they were expecting. The timing was right around Tipper Gore and her PMRC crusade against metal music, so I am sure that is a major underlying joke here. I know I wore my "F*%K TIpper Gore" shirt proudly to concerts often back then. The whole thing is goofy but has a certain element of fun to it. And you get to see Vincent Pastore before Sopranos fame swallowed up by a spider thing mutated out of a sound speaker LOL. If you are interested in nostalgia and want a horror flick from the late 80s that wasn't a slasher, you may have a good time with this one. Just don't expect anything exceptional.

Wyobraźcie sobie spokojne, wręcz ospałe miasteczko Mill Basin, którego mieszkańcy wiodą żywot prawy i cnotliwy, a wręcz nudny. Pewnego dnia jednak sielankowa atmosfera zostaje brutalnie zakłócona przybyciem zespołu hardrockowego. Niechęć rodziców do muzyków nosi znamiona fobii, co powoduje pozbawioną sensu, bezpardonową walkę z nastolatkami. Ci z kolei bezkrytycznie poddają się niezdrowemu magnetyzmowi zespołu, a szczególnie jego lidera. Jedynie miejscowy nauczyciel Matthew zachowuje jasny umysł, dzięki czemu udaje mu się zgłębić mroczną tajemnicę rockersów i stawić czoła złu, którego są uosobieniem.
