A Classic.... Great Music
, December 13, 1999Reviewer: belch69 - See all belch69's reviewsThis movie came out about the same time as "Rocky Horror Picture Show".

Great music like Stevie Nicks and great actors like John Candy.
Funny, comical and bloody too.
What a movie. ...

Cons: Adult themed and not for everyone
This movie defined an era. It has music by Blue Oyster Cult, Devo and others. The storylines are threaded together by the evil Loch-Nar and that is perhaps the weakest part of the movie.
