DVD Talk review of 'Orgazmo: SE'
From David E. Kelly's review of Orgazmo at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=14988:
And the soundtrack is also a string of 90s anthems, including hip-hop, a kickin’ techno Orgazmo theme song, and tracks like “Now You’re A Man” that reflect the goth rock of the time, recalling sounds of Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie.
Hate to pick nits, but "Now You're A Man" is not a goth-rock pastiche, but instead a parody of 1980s action theme songs -- the obvious model is Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger," the theme to Rocky III. It's along the same lines as Matt's tune "America (Fuck Yeah!)" from Team America (though that song's slightly more in tune with more impersonal anthems like "Danger Zone" from Top Gun and "One Vision" from Iron Eagle).
