Lux Interior, founder and lead singer of the immortal horror-punk band The Cramps, died yesterday in Glendale, California of a previously existing heart condition. Interior did not have a long and distinguished movie career, but he and the rest of The Cramps did appear in The Foreigner, an 1978 indie movie written and directed by Amos Poe. According to the New York Times review published at the time, “The Foreigner deals with the ‘punk’ sensibility as manifested at CBGB, the rock nightclub on the Bowery; the streets and lofts of SoHo and the leather bars of the West Village. The subject is not without interest, although punk seems to have lost some of its spark in the six months or so since the film was made.” Having seen The Cramps perform numerous times over the years, I can tell you this is not the case.
