So I'm at home bored, flicking channels and I come across the movie, "Flight of the Navigator."
Remember it from back in the day, so watch for a while. Gets to the scene where the kid asks Sarah Jessica Parker why she has pink hair, to which she replies that she's been to see TWISTED SISTER the previous night!!
This got me thinking about other times I could remember a TWISTED reference/appearance from the movies!!

OK, so there was TWISTED doing "Burn In Hell", in Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.
"We killed the one that looks like TWISTED SISTER!", from the Lost Boys.
DEE had a small cameo in "Private Parts."

And thats all I could come up with!! Any fellow SMFS have any memories of any others? There must be heaps more!!

Also remember a TWISTED reference in Stephen Kings,"IT".

Come on you SMFS, kick your memories into gear!!

We watched that "Flight of the Navigator" in school in the 8th grade. When she mentioned TS I put my fist in the air and I'm like "YEAH!!!!".

NICE DUDE!! Did'nt remember the line from back in the day, but thought it was pretty cool to see TWISTED get a mention in a mainstream family flick!

I know there was a movie I saw on TV once with Demi Moore ( I think) and some other guy who was in a lot of eighties movies, and they had I believe 3 Twisted Songs from Under the Blade in it. I think two were I'll never grow up now, and possibly shoot em down. It was very strange to hear songs from that album in a movie, but for the life of me I can' t remember the title of the film. Anyone else seen this movie? I'm sure it wasn't a dream.

Of course then there was also Strangeland! You can't forget about that.

I can remember 3 movies with TS references.
1. Wildcats had a TS poster in the daughters' bedroom
2. Iron Eagle played "We're Not Gonna Take It"
3. Last but not least, there was a Michael Keaton movie with the line, "No more MTV. No more Twisted Sister." Now that I'm typing this, I can't remember the name.

Hey Munro -

I think the movie you are thinking of is called One Crazy Summer. I'm pretty sure Bobcat Goldthwaite was in it too (who of course was also in the Be Chrool To Your Scuel video). There were at least two TS songs in it...definitely I'll Never Grow Up Now, and I can't be sure of the others but I think maybe Under The Blade and What You Don't Know or Shoot Em Down

S.M.F. Forever,
Corey

Hmmm......I saw Dee on Drew Carey show once LOL,he was funny !!!

And yeah ,i remember Twisted Sister getting mentioned on "Flight Of the navigator",i watched it as a small kid in the end of the eighties or beginning of the nineties,and remember that phrase from that movie.

Also,i watched the "GUNG HO" with Michael Keaton, "WNGTI" was on MTV

hmmm.....Road Trip
Squarepants.....
Pee Wee too....
i heard "we're not gonna take it" on another American teenage comedy,but don't remember which one was it.....anyone?

Parental Advisory (the movie)...
oh yeah,and i saw a movie few weeks ago and it was with some hospital or classroom full with hard speeking and deaf people,and there was one punk kid,who couldn't speak good,and been asked what's his favorite band,he says like: TWISTED SISTER (very not recognisible)...and the "teacher"(doctor) says: What? OOOHH,TWISTED SISTER...OK
Funny Thing !!

Fan Since 81 - Demi was in No Small Affair along with Jon Cryer....however, she starred with John Cusack in One Crazy Summer...and I definitely remember watching it and being taken off guard when I heard Twisted Sister while watching it. I actually didn't realize INGUN was in it until I saw the credits rolling as I had not heard the song yet at the point, and watched the movie again, to try to hear it, but couldn't figure it out. I just realized the Mark Metcalfe also appeared in One Crazy Summer (as per IMDB.com). Interesting tie in.

The Sitcom Kate & Allie. One of them mentioned they were going to a Twisted Sister concert.

Movie "Sister Act 2", there was a comment. "Talk about a Twisted Sister" -Goldberg

The very short lived 80's Sitcom, Bean's Baxter, Dee made an thorough appearance. It was a spoof of The Excorist. WNGTI cured the brainwashed kids.

Movie "Just one of the Guys"....one of the cafeteria scenes someone had a Twisted Sister shirt on.

Some commercials..Comtrax, 7up, there's at least one more if I'm not mistaken, it's escaping me.

And the NY Yankees played WNGTI before every home game and after every game they won in 1993. Jim Abbott(one handed pitcher) pitched a no-hitter that year in September....TS sounded great over that sound system when they had exciting wins.

Just found this link....they list some other stuff.
