Ozzy Osbourne played a catholic priest in “Trick ‘R’ Treat.” His character was complaining about kids these days, and their loud music He had to be having a blast

Jawaka99

I'm going to assume that the OP is looking for metal bands of the time and not necessarily hair metal. Ozzy and Gene Simmons were in the movie Treat or Treat https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092112/ Lemmy & White Zombie were in Airheads https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109068/


roseflora333

NothausTelecaster72

Warrant was on Dance Party USA


roseflora333

NothausTelecaster72

It was a local Philly area show modeled after American Bandstand that people like Kelly Ripa was a regular when she was a teen. They did not normally feature bands but did show Warrant once doing Down boys I believe. https://youtu.be/sJNQkqXbnQ4?si=CcpJ3YJteBvUkkdr

Maybe not hair metal, but I remember hearing of the Red Hot Chili Peppers for the first time in old movie called Tough Guys with Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster. They were playing a club in the movie. Also, Oingo Boingo jumped out at me in Back to School. Again, not necessarily hair metal, but fantastic music cameos.

Kevin_LeStrange

Also while it's not hair metal, I loved how Foreigner kept coming up as music that both Booth and Brennan had in common.


lmr3006

Absolutely ruined “ Hot Blooded” for me. Can’t listen to it anymore.


asprisokolata

Am I wrong or was Little Caesar in T2?


roseflora333

I've never heard of that , that is cool I will to see that thank you so much


BroccoliBrilliant540

It was little Caesar yes


DinosaurDavid2002

Twisted Sisters song was featured on a certain spongebob movie I believe... Hard to believe that happened, since this was 13 years after Hair Metal was out of the mainstream. A lot of Spongebob fans have no idea that this song even existed before Spongebob... which I found it very silly since the songwriting(combined with the fact that Nickelodeon doesn't usually do hair metal stuff anyway) would have give it away.


katCEO

Hair bands in media: A comprehensive compilation of Wiki-surfing. Twisted Sister: \-Dee Snider was the writer and played the lead antagonist of the movie Strangeland (not to be confused with the dinsey movie strange *world*). The movie is based on the song Horror-Teria from the Stay Hungry album. \-The whole band makes a cameo in Pee Wee's Big Adventure while Burn in Hell Plays. \-The show "Growing Up Twisted" is basically just an american version of The Osbournes but with Dee Snider's family. \-Mark Mendoza co-created a podcast called Area 22 Productions. \-Dee Snider was the host of the Philly-based radio show "Dee Snider Radio". \-Jay Jay French makes frequent posts on his Instagram account interviewing rock stars. \-Dee Snider apparently voiced the villain in some game called "Jax and Daxter" Quiet Riot: \-Kevin Dubrow was a photographer for Guitar Player and Rock magazines as a teenager. \-Rudy Sarzo played a fictional bass player in the episode "On a Deadman's Chest" of the show Tales from the Crypt. \-This isn't a normal form of media, but Rudy Sarzo co-founded a restaurant called Cafe Habana.
