‘Studio 666’ Film Review: Foo Fighters Horror Flick Is a Goofy, Gory Home Movie
“The Kids from C.A.P.E.R.” Keyboardist Rami Jaffee either had no problem with, or specifically requested, being portrayed like a horny New Age space-case who can tell you how long a corpse has been dead just by listening to its vibes. The perpetually put-upon Pat Smear doesn’t even get a bedroom as this gigantic house, but he chipperly sleeps in the kitchen because, obviously, it’s closer to the Doritos.And then there’s Dave Grohl, who came up with the story of “Studio 666,” and initially plays himself as a slightly out-of-touch dweeb who loves sconces, and isn’t afraid to tell you about it, but gradually falls prey to the dark-ish side of celebrity and transforms into a selfish meanie who also, if they’re getting in the way of his mojo, murders his bandmates with their own barbecue.
