Is there a prominent metal presence in this movie? Is it any good? Any comments appreciated.
i love el dia de la bestia, great horror comedy. the director's previous movie "Accion mutante" is great too. theres not really too much metal in the film - theres one great scene where the priest goes into a record store with a list of bands he should check out and one is called "napalm dez". the "satanic" band that is featured in the film is def con dos who started off sounding like a really bad version of public enemy, and then later turned into a really bad rage against the machine type band

Holy shit, these film-makers have truly been utterly clueless. You know 'normal' stupidity' is one thing, but when a story attempts to be a bit more esoteric, and comes up with ridiculous shit like this I can't do anything but laugh.

And one of the the Isi Disi duo is the same actor as the metal head in El Dia De La Bestia.
Isi Disi is a play of words with AC-DC in case you haven't figured out already. Can't remember well but they probably mentioned some bands there.

Don't know if it counts but in Opera (1987) by Dario Argento they have a speed metal music going on when the killings are done. If I remember correctly the music was made purposely made for the movie and the fictitious band name Steel Grave and its only two songs are only available in the OST.
They were mostly cheesy speed metal songs done considering all the cliches of the genre at the time, but I think they are awesome. Too bad there has never been available more stuff from them.
Check them out if you have the opportunity.

Also, a Motorhead song in one of the Hellraiser movies credits, forgot which one.

Crazy, fucked up movie and alright s/track!

Another great movie, not really metal but punk, but still really cool was SUBURBIA, here's a clip worth checking out:

Also, the Aussie move called Sons Of Steel featured Perth band BLACK ALICE:
