Fact
1
Was in the running for the T-1000 role in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, but Arnold Schwarzenegger thought he'd be too tall for the role at 6'4", so the evil Terminator role was later awarded to #Robert Patrick.
His famous "Cock Rocket" exploded and set his legs on fire during a W.A.S.P. concert.

Blackie wrote and performed "Scream Until You Like It", the theme song for the 1987 nonsense gore-comedy Ghoulies II (1988), with his band W.A.S.P., yet doesn't appear credited in any of the music for that film on the IMDB, for some reason.

Is the lead singer for the heavy metal band W.A.S.P..
W.A.S,P.'s controversial first single "Animal" was considered offensive, and therefore was not included on the album as it would have meant it being banned from major chain stores. Capitol Records (W.A.S.P's then-record company) planned to release it as a single only in Europe, in a black plastic bag with a sticker warning of offensive lyrics. At the last minute Capitol backs out and the single is salvaged when it is later released as a single by "Music For Nations", who released it in its original sleeve in April of 1984.
