Where did the rock n roll horror genre go?

The combination of horror and rock is a match made in heaven...so where has it gone? I blame the rise of indie rock, although I do enjoy my share of wussy pop, I miss the hair metal bands that fought evil or obviously were evil.

Rock n Roll Nightmare starring Thor.
"When the band starts to rock heads start to roll"




Rocktober Blood
"He's back from the dead with a message from hell!"





Trick or Treat appearances by Ozzy Osbourne and Gene Simmons
"What are you afraid of? It's only rock n roll!"

You can do it....MUSIC!

My life lately has consisted of sleep, work, and the gym, needless to say I needed something to liven things up. I remembered all of the 80's movies that had such inspiring and ridiculous montages...I thought I can do this!



I realize that "It's Always Sunny" has beat me to the "punch", but this is the quintessential you can do it song.




I was struggling with this montage, but after some thought, I believe "Thrashin'" is a do it song. 1. It tells you you're thrashin' 2. You're running hot 3. Tearing it up 4. Josh Brolin



Absolutely no explanation needed...





Not an 80's montage, but an unbelievable homage
Orgazmo



The Stargrove theme from "Never Too Young To Die" is my favorite you can do it song...Unfortunately I couldn't find a clip, so if you will bear with me start this at the 3:06 mark. So worth it!




I hope that I have inspired someone to punch, thrash, rip, find glory, be the best, and of course BREAK OUT!

A quick P.S. Kevin Bacon...





Thanks for reminding me Malia!
