I was a bit young (8?) to see that kind of violence.

I suspect Airplane was only rated PG when it came out. Alien was probably mine.

Another great idea for a thread. Or does one of these already exist here?
just brew it! wrote:Trivia tangent: The Blue Oyster Cult album Fire of Unknown Origin has several songs on it which were written for the Heavy Metal soundtrack (one is even a musical plot synopsis of part of the movie), but which ended up not being used. The one BOC song that did end up on the soundtrack was Veteran of the Psychic Wars. IMO this is one of the best albums BOC ever released, and might even make my "desert island discs" list (depending on the length of said list)...
