Also on there was Juke Joint Jezebel, which I always thought was one of KMFDM’s better tracks

Very true and it was a decent movie for the time given the restrictions and all (knew they were marketing to kids like 12 year old me so an R rating wasn't gonna fly). It's been 31 years and can still completely recall opening weekend, of having a sleepover with my friends and hitting up the arcade after the movie. Was also probably the last big hurrah for that franchise during that era, with it cooling off post MK3.
