True, the movie could have done without it. However, it's incredibly catchy IMO! Makes me wanna dance.

I like it. And I think its critical to the story, its Shiloh's breaking away song. Its shows her first real step in rebelling against Nathan.
I'm the masked horror on your street corner! Make your mama mourn ya!
It's catchy and I like it sometimes, but my real favorite part was just when he slaps her in the face and she's all the sudden back in reality. The quick change is really what makes it interesting/funny to me.
Team Potter. Suck it Vamps.
I mostly like the line "Daddy's Girl's a *beep* monster!"
Find it kind of ironic considering the monster her dad actually is.

Where have the standards gone, love?
I love it. It was the only song in the entire film recorded DURING filming. The sloppy, raw punk rock is just AMAZING. It's Shilo's anthem. She loves her father but hates being kept inside. Also, I LOVE her outfit in this song. It's my second favorite; her 21st Century Cure outfit being in the lead :)
"'Cause I'm sweeter than sixteen!"
Yeah, I'm one of the people who can't stand it. It sounds like a Joan Jett/Pat Benatar song, and I absolutely loathe that style. Seventeen and Infected are my two least favorite songs from the movie, definitely not because of Vega, but because they don't feel right to me, out of place would be the best way to describe it. I'd characterize almost every other song in the movie as having an industrial overtone, but these seem devoid of that sound entirely.
shareIt's not my favorite song, but that's to be expected with all of the fantastic gems in the movie. However, I do like it and find myself singing it all the time. Also, I agree that it's important to the plot because it's while "Infected" shows how much Shilo loathes being kept in her room, "Seventeen" really presents Shilo's frustration against her father.
I Krueger!
My mouth says yes - but my body says...YES!
hah, it reminded me too much of avril lavigne. especially with the outfit and the dancing.
shareSounds nothing like Joan Jett, that would have been an improvement.
Sounds more like Avril Lavigne, if anything. It's the type of lame pop punk for pre-teens that I hate.
And most of the music in the film doesn't sound very industrial to me at all. Ogre might be one of the main characters, but it doesn't sound very Skinny Puppy. Actually sounds like Yoshiki might have had a greater influence... Honestly, I hear more symphonic metal, pop, and straight up traditional opera.
it's funny kolchak mentions jett considering shes in there as a cameo. as for the song itself. it's kinda bad. but it's catchy the guitar riff is catchy. it's just so damn catchy!!
"Hating on haters is a form of Hatin!"
You know that was Joan Jett's cameo, right? It sounds like a Jett song, because Jett is playing the song, and was the inspiration for it. >_>
I didn't really care for it at first either. But look at it this way, how many of us at that age /really/ understood metal/rock, and would have pumped out something as angsty as that?
I think it's a fun song

I don't think there is a song I didn't like. I can play the whole soundtrack over and over again.

While it's not the best song in the movie, there are plenty of better ones, it's still a very catchy song that I liked.
shareI like that song as well. I think it kind of adds more of a fun and abstract feel to the story, especially since all of the dark events surrounding it. I like how the song is also kind of random too, like the writers thought "hmm, well this movie is already gothic enough. I know! Let's add a random punk song in it just for diversity!"
