Listen to Marilyn Manson’s Cover of ‘Cry Little Sister’ from The Lost Boys

Published

on

If you love ’80s vampire movies, you love The Lost Boys. And if you love the movie, you undoubtedly love its theme, Cry Little Sister. 

And if you’re a fan of Marilyn Manson and the iconic vampire film, you may also fall in love with his cover of the song, which has just been released.

Fans of Manson may have heard the song live as of late, as he has been incorporating it into some of his setlists. The decision to record Cry Little Sister made to have it heard in the new X-Men spinoff film The New Mutants, as reported by Consequence of Sound.

The film, which is intended to be a straightforward horror movie, is currently set for release on February 22nd, 2019.  Though Blade contained many horror elements, this would be the first movie featuring Marvel characters to strictly be a horror movie.

You can stream Manson’s Cry Little Sister below courtesy of YouTube or find it on any major streaming platforms.

The song was originally written in 1987 by Gerard McMann and Michael Mainieri. It was performed by McMann; however, McMann is a pseudonym, and McMann’s true name is Gerard McMahon.

The song has a long history of cover versions. Most (if not all) have been compiled on the wiki page for the song for anyone interested in hearing other interpretations of this 1980’s classic.

How does it compare to the original? Or his other cover songs, for that matter? Let us know whether you like it or not.

Rock Music & Goopy Practical Effects in ‘Destroy All Neighbors’ Trailer

Published

on

The heart of rock and roll is still beating in the Shudder original Destroy All Neighbors. Over-the-top practical effects are also alive in this release coming to the platform on January 12. The streamer released the official trailer and it has some pretty big names behind it.

Directed by Josh Forbes the movie stars Jonah Ray Rodrigues, Alex Winter, and Kiran Deol.

Rodrigues plays William Brown, “a neurotic, self-absorbed musician determined to finish his prog-rock magnum opus, faces a creative roadblock in the form of a noisy and grotesque neighbor named Vlad (Alex Winter). Finally working up the nerve to demand that Vlad keep it down, William inadvertently decapitates him. But, while attempting to cover up one murder, William’s accidental reign of terror causes victims to pile up and become undead corpses who torment and create more bloody detours on his road to prog-rock Valhalla. Destroy All Neighbors is a twisted splatter-comedy about a deranged journey of self-discovery full of goopy practical FX, a well-known ensemble cast, and LOTS of blood.”

Take a look at the trailer and let us know what you think!

A Boy Band Kills Our Favorite Reindeer in “I Think I Killed Rudolph”

Published

on

The new movie There’s Something in the Barn seems like a tongue-in-cheek holiday horror movie. It’s like Gremlins but bloodier and with gnomes. Now there is a song on the soundtrack that captures the humor and horror of the movie called I Think I Killed Rudolph.

The ditty is a collab between two Norwegian boy bands: Subwoofer and A1.

Subwoofer was s Eurovision entrant in 2022. A1 is a popular act from the same country. Together they killed poor Rudolph in a hit-and-run. The humorous song is a part of the film which follows a family fulfilling their dream, “of moving back after inheriting a remote cabin in the mountains of Norway.” Of course, the title gives away the rest of the movie and it turns into a home invasion — or — a gnome invasion.

There’s Something in the Barn releases in cinemas and On Demand December 1.
