I understand this is a cult classic among eighties-metal fans, and I can see why--it's permeated with the feel of that music. It's pretty well-acted, too, though the whole concept is kind of silly and poorly executed once the dead rocker shows us. Far from remarkable, but still more fun than it should be.

Writing rework was done by Glen Morgan and James Wong, X-Files writers extraordinaire. Morgan also starred in Trick or Treat.
