    Good selection, but absolutely missing out on some great, more recent movies. Deathgasm, Studio 666, Lords of Chaos (not as a factual depiction but still great entertainment), Heavy (and heavier) Trip, The Story of Anvil (although that’s a documentary).

    Decline of the Western civilizations part 2 mostly sucked. Filled with a bunch of hairspray posers. Best parts were Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Ozzy, Lemmy, and Megadeth.

    Deteoid Rock city was dope, and The Dirt on Netflix goes hard.
    I even remember seeing an early Michael Starr from steel panther in something growing up but can't remember the name of the movie.

    I didn't really care for the movie Heavy Metal. Airheads and Spinal Tap are the best Heavy Metal movies, as is The Decline Of Western Civilization part II & The Pick Of Destiny period. Getcha Pull <3 🍻😎🤘🥂💯🍻

    My wife and I saw DRC at the theater when it came out. Now, I own the DVD and movie poster.
    Yup, I’m a big KISS fan 🙂
    My wife is into rock / metal, so having a somewhat large KISS collection on full display is okay with her.
    Normal people have a nice display of plates and what-nots in their China cabinet We have KISS merch displayed, along with framed posters surrounding the China cabinet.
    Yup, it’s pretty obvious which band we listen to.
