Shock 'Em Dead1991
“For the girl of his dreams, he'd make a deal with the devil.”
Directed by Mark Freed
The premise
Martin is a total loser, who nobody cares for. When he fails to get a position as guitar player in Lindsay's band and loses his job on the way, he makes a deal with a Voodoo priestess. She promises him the fulfillment of all his dreams if he swears obedience to her. He becomes a rock star and has many women - but to stay alive, he has to kill other people.
Horror Vault's take
A down-on-his-luck nobody dreams of rock stardom and will literally sell his soul to get it, striking a bargain with a voodoo priestess that transforms him overnight into a shredding sensation. The price of his new life is steep and sinister — he must keep feeding the darkness that made him to stay on top. Equal parts heavy metal fantasy and supernatural horror, this early-90s cult oddity delivers cheese, carnage, and an unforgettable low-budget energy. Fans of Traci Lords will find her front and center in this wild ride through the dark side of the music industry.
