Heavy Metal, at the time a sister publication to the National Lampoon, spawned an animated feature film in the summer of 1981.
The story is told in multiple parts, adapting the works of legendary artists Berni Wrightson, whose Captain Sternn would later be spun off into his own book at Kitchen Sink Comics, if memory serves me correctly, and Richard Corben, among others.
With the Eagles on hiatus for a few years, Don Felder wrote and recorded "Heavy Metal (Takin' a Ride)", but the poster subbed a more graphic segment in the movie not connected with the song. Parental discretion is advised due to graphic violence.
