Awesome Heavy Metal Horror!
This. Movie. ROCKS! Marc Price (Skippy from Family Ties) is pretty good in this, and Tony Fields does an excellent job as Sammi Curr. I especially loved the cameos by Gene Simmons (From KISS) And Ozzy Osbourne. He had the best cameo as a preacher revealing the evils of Rock 'N' Roll. I had to buy the VHS, though I knew it was also on DVD, but I hear the quality's inferior. I know the VHS quality is equal to the DVD, but it's still a better buy. Anyway, back to the movie, like I said, it's awesome.
Highly recommended
Ozzy---in a role you won't believe.
This film is about a kid who idolizes a rock star that ends up dying tragically. He comes back to the living through his record albums. The kid, Eddie is taunted by other students because of his love of heavy metal, but you guessed it, seeks revenge.
This is definitely a real cheezy 80s type of movie that didn't scare me in the least. BUT, where else could you see Ozzy play a minister---all perfect and clean cut and Gene Simmons a disc jockey? It was worth it just to see those two.
Sometimes I just like to kick back and watch a simple movie and have fun, and if you're into that, this is the film for you. Definitely not an award winning picture...

80's Hard Rock That Stands Up Still Today (Soundtrack review)
I remember really liking this soundtrack, and listening to it often back in the late 80's, later in high school and early in college.
I ran into a copy of the LP at a local record store today, and decided to pick it up for $4 (mint condition). And yes Fastway writes some great rock songs on this one, but pass on the movie it's awful (if that isn't obvious).
The sound is classic Fastway if you remember them, and their one big hit, "Say What You Will" back in the very early 80's. The soundtrack here is definitely Fastway's last gasp at a mature, fleshed out heavy metal sound, which at times is slowed down, full of angst and teen rebellion. It's got an 80's heavy metal feel, but it's never hair band quality. Think AC/DC.
The cover artwork is obviously cheesey and ridiculous, along with the movie, if you can get past that, the soundtrack is A+ stuff from start to finish, and widely appealing rock music (relative to the times and genre).

classic 80's
everytime I watch the video- it takes me back 20 years to 1986 when I first seen this movie at the theatre. It is timeless and still (somewhat) holds up to this day.
There are a few cheesy parts in the movie like when Sami sings at the high school (lip sync) and the make out scene in the car- the demon looks too fake.
This is what it was like going through high school in the 80's if you were a true metal head. If you were a metal- head in the 80's then you will love this flick. great music soundtrack from the metal band FASTWAY.
This is one of the few flicks of the 80's that holds a special place in my heart.
