"No More MR Nice Guy is the Sound-track of the motion picture/movie SHOCKER , directed by WES CRAVEN
Heavy metal titans Megadeth delivered a blistering rendition of Alice Cooper's "No More Mr. Nice Guy," a song that perfectly encapsulated the raw energy and dark themes of Wes Craven's cult classic horror film *Shocker*. This powerful cover headlined the iconic Maxi Single 12" vinyl release, solidifying its place in both thrash metal and cinematic history.
A Soundtrack of Rebellion
Featured prominently in the *Shocker* soundtrack, "No More Mr. Nice Guy" became an anthem for the film's villain, Horace Pinker. Megadeth's interpretation of the track masterfully amplifies the rebellious spirit and defiance against conformity that Cooper originally infused in the song. Dave Mustaine's snarling vocals, coupled with the band's signature thrash metal instrumentation, gave the classic a revitalized intensity.
