In some instances of rock stars jumping into film, they're either playing a version of themselves or are playing a character that gets a few seconds of forgettable screen time. This was not the case for Dee Snider in Strangeland.

Appearing alongside the horror icon Robert Englund, it was Snider who inflicted fear as the sadomasochist Captain Howdy. A sick pervert who lures teenagers online, abducts them, and does some truly f*cked up things to these poor women, Snider's Captain Howdy is a terrifying character.

The movie was written by Snider himself and features appearances by Amy Smart and Linda Cardellini. It's twisted and hard to swallow at many moments, but if you're a fan of the sadism of movies like Hostel, Strangeland may be right up your alley.
