Overview
Eddie Weinbauer, a metalhead teen who is bullied at school, looks to his heavy metal superstar idol, Sammi Curr, for guidance. When Curr is killed in a hotel fire, Eddie becomes the recipient of the only copy of Curr’s unreleased album, which, when played backwards, brings Sammi back to life. As Halloween approaches, Eddie begins to realize that this isn’t only rock ‘n roll…it’s life and death.

Viewing Notes
A totally rad heavy metal horror that pretty wonderfully switches between serious and self-aware on a dime. It works well thanks to a surprisingly clever script, Tony Fields hamming it up and a wonderful bit role for Ozzy. I’ve seen this on the big screen twice and it’s always a hit with the audience.
