Heavy Metal & Horror movies

I can only recall Dokken's "in my dreams" and Alice's Cooper's "He's back, (the man behind the mask)".
Great songs BTW. Can you name another horror movies metal soundtracks?

Dario Argento's Phenomenon. Has Maiden's Flash of the Blade and Motörhead's Locomotive.

Fastway has an entire album for the Trick or Treat movie.

Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Freebird" in The Devil's Rejects. OK, that's not metal.

How about Shok Paris' "On Your Feet" in The Hidden? OK, that's not really a horror movie.

Nevermind.

Who Made Who and that entire AC/DC album in Maximum Overdrive.

the movie Black Roses had a soundtrack that had bands like Lizzy Borden, Hallow's Eve, & King Cobra.

the Demon Knight soundtrack had Ministry, Pantera, Machine Head, Melvins, Biohazard, & Megadeth.

Shocker

Lääz Rockit's song Leatherface was used in Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III.

Did you mean 'Dream Warriors'? And The Vinnie Vincent Invasion had 'Love Kills' in one of those Nightmare movies. I don't know which one. The 2nd maybe?

I believe the V.V.I. track was on the soundtrack to the 4th "Elm Street" flick.

Bruce Dickinson's solo version of "Bring Your Daughter (To The Slaughter)" was in the 5th "Elm St." too.

The Sleepaway Camp movies have Obsession all over them.

I seem to recall the horrible film ROCK & ROLL NIGHTMARE having metal music in it...can't recall whom....

I seem to think the same about THE GATE.

John Mikl Thor did Rock N' Roll Nightmare, pretty crap tastic. The Gate had alot of metal references, but the band in the movie is fictional. Ghoulies II had a song by W.A.S.P. in it(Scream Until You Like It).

The Strangeland soundtrack has some cool tunes on it.

RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD....more punkluy than metal, but still rockin'....

RIVER'S EDGE.....I'd consider it somewhat horrific in story...and it has metal in it!!!

Sorry, I didn't write the name of the movie. "In my dreams" is in the movie Nightmare on Elm Street and it is played by Dokken. I really like that song, very 80's

I think you're confusing Dokken's "In My Dreams," which was not in an "Elm Street" movie, with their song "Dream Warriors," which WAS in an Elm Street movie.

Yep, sorry!! dream warriors!!!!

Not necessarily horror movies, but...

Gremlins 2 has a clip in it of Slayer's 'Angel of Death', when the gremlin is drinking the potion that makes him turn into a spider.

Pacific Heights, a suspense drama with Michael Keaton, has a clip of Hallows Eve's 'Lethal Tendencies' in one scene.

Man, there is so damn many out there. Here's two more.

1) Dèmoni (Demons): Accept- Fast as a Shark, Saxon- Everybody Up, Motley Crue- Save Our Souls, Pretty Maids- Night Danger

2) Ragewar (The Dungeonmaster) W.A.S.P.- Tormentor

You can hear a snippet of Anvil's "Burning Bridges" during a scene in the newest "Final Destination" movie ("The Final Destination")

Oh, and Uwe Boll's piece of crap movie "Alone in the Dark" (aka "Christian Slater and Tara Reid vs. the Aliens") has Dimmu Borgir and a whole mess of other Nuclear Blast Records bands on the soundtrack.

Yeah, I made the mistake of catching that on TV last fall and the highlight was hearing Nightwish during the closing credits.

You see/hear a bit of W.A.S.P. playing "Tormentor" in the cheesy horror comedy "TerrorVision" (1986?) too. One of the characters wears a W.A.S.P. shirt throughout the movie as well.

It was pretty awful wasn't it? And not in a "so bad it's good" way either. I have since learned to avoid anything with Uwe Boll's name on it. A guy on IMDB once said that "Uwe Boll" is German for "Ed Wood Jr."

Actually, Alone In The Dark was quite watchable compared to the other Boll film I've seen. Bloodrayne. Ugh! It was barely even coherent.

The only thing that made "A.I.T.D." watchable for me was Tara Reid.
