In horror, the musician appeared in Tales from the Crypt episode “For Cryin’ Out Loud,” lent his voice to Hardware, plays a music producer in the rock horror movie Suck, and showcased his comedic chops in The Dead Don’t Die. But one of his most prominent genre roles was the villainous Curve in The Crow: City of Angels. Curve was the right-hand man to the film’s big bad and responsible for committing the heinous inciting act that revived a new Crow.Ī founding member and the bassist of the Red Hot Chili Peppers pursued minor work in movies since the ’80s. In horror, that began with a small voice role in the 1983 anthology Nightmare s. Horror fans will likely recognize him most as Bob Summerfield, a clerk employed at Sam Loomis Hardware in Gus Van Sant’s Psycho remake. TRAILER STRANGELAND MOVIEīut Flea also starred as the bumbling Jester the Alien in the obscure ’80s sci-fi movie Stranded, which saw his alien clan kidnap a woman and her grandma while on the run from bounty hunters. The former Police frontman might’ve stolen scenes as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen in David Lynch’s Dune, but his turn as the arrogant Baron Charles Frankenstein is his most robust role in the genre. The Bride is, of course, another adaptation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, though it wasn’t well-received upon release.
The rock star plays the villainous role well, but he might be upstaged a bit by Clancy Brown as the empathetic Viktor, the Monster. Japanese garage punk rock band Guitar Wolf play themselves here. The horror-comedy is based on a simple setup: aliens are responsible for unleashing the zombie apocalypse, and only Japanese rock band Guitar Wolf can save the day. It plays out like one feature-length music video that puts Guitar Wolf’s distortion-infused, punk-influenced attitude and sound at the forefront while they slaughter zombies along the way.
