Studio 666, the Foo Fighters horror comedy

Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl Unveils Horror Comedy Movie ‘STUDIO 666

Foo Fighters stars in «Studio 666,» a feature-length horror-comedy, which hits US theaters on February 25.

The film, distributed by Open Road Films, takes place in a mansion where the band moves to record their tenth album.

But in order to fulfill his objective, Foo Fighters must face supernatural forces that threaten their lives and try to make the recording fail.

In the tape Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett and Rami Jaffee, the members of the band, interpret themselves.

In a press release Grohl explained:

“After decades of ridiculous music videos and numerous music documentaries under our collective belts, it was finally time to take it to the next level.

Like most things Foo, Studio 666 began with a far-fetched idea that blossomed into something bigger than we ever imagined possible.

Be ready to laugh, scream, and headbang in your popcorn. Studio 666 will fuck you up.”

Foo Fighters horror comedy

The film is based on a story by Grohl and with a script by Jeff Buhler and Rebecca Hughes.

According to the previews, the film was secretly filmed for two years in the same house where they recorded their album «Medicine at Midnight.»

Grohl explained that with this film they want to bring back the classic magic of their favorite rock movies but with a «bloody» twist.

“Get ready to laugh, scream, and shake your head in your popcorn. Studio 666 will screw you, «warned the musician.

On his side, the film’s director, BJ McDonnell, explained that with «Studio 666» he wanted to achieve a combination of the things he loves: rock, horror and comedy.

In his opinion, it is an old-fashioned rock movie from the 60s and 70s, mixed with horror.

His inspiration were films like «Help!» by The Beatles, «Head» by The Monkees, and «Meets the Phantom of the Park» by Kiss.

So get ready to listen to rock, laugh, and face fear.

«The Last Days of John Lennon», a non fiction novel

The Last Days of John Lennon «Real Readers»

«The Last Days of John Lennon» is a book that, beyond addressing the last stage of the Beatle, searches within the history of the emblematic British band.

Despite its title, James Patterson’s work spans from Lennon’s childhood to the formation and separation of The Beatles, as well as his solo career and with Yoko Ono.

Something that gives rigor to the book is the interviews that support much of the material, including fellow Beatle Paul McCartney.


And the principal author is a skilled writer with 275 books and 425 million copies sold.

If we add that the center of the work is one of the greatest musicians in history, it can be said that it is a book worth reading.

If we add that the center of the work is one of the greatest musicians in history, it can be said that it is a book worth reading.

Patterson writes like a news agency journalist: in short, direct sentences, but not because of the lack of literary imagination.

John Lennon, non fiction murder

Another feature that stands out is that in «The Last Days of John Lennon» you can detect the author’s job as a writer of crime novels.

But since it is not fiction but one of the most notorious murders in history, Patterson requested the collaboration of real crime writers.

It is about Casey Sherman and Dave Wedge, authors of «<a href="http://Boston Strong: A City’s Triumph over Tragedy«>Boston Strong: A City’s Triumph over Tragedy«, focused on the marathon attack.

As a result, came this non-fiction book written by a novelist with the help of 2 crime investigators.

Could you ask for more? Well, Patterson is also a rock and roll lover who lived in the genre’s golden age.

He attended Woodstock and worked as an usher at the Fillmore East, a concert hall owned by promoter Bill Graham.

In that theater, he saw Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, and The Grateful Dead perform.

Insulted by Jim Morrison

In an interview with GQ Magazine in 2020 Patterson said that one night Graham, Jim Morrison and some of The Doors were sitting in the front row of this theater after the performance.

As the writer recalls, the lights were on about four stories up, and Morrison said: “Jesus Christ, Graham. Those lights could go out and kill everyone in these front rows! «

Graham told him, “You’re fucking crazy. This is crazy. «And Morrison just stormed off. He even yelled at the ushers.» We were honored that he even spoke to us, «Patterson said.

About 10 minutes later, according to the writer, they heard a scream. Then they saw Morrison dangling from the lights, legs in the air, yelling, «Bill, you’re right, these lights are perfectly safe!»

I do not know for you, but for me, it is a guarantee of veracity a book written by a person who confesses himself to be a rock and roll lover and received insults from Jim Morrison himself.
