Viewing Notes

I’ve owned the soundtrack to Shocker (1989) since the movie was released. It’s chock full of pop heavy metal tunes most created for the film. Sadly I never bothered to actually watch the movie. Corrected! And it’s pretty good when it’s trying to be a serious horror flick but the comedy elements are a bit too much.
