Whether it's Alice Cooper in Prince of Darkness, David Bowie in The Hunger, or Debbie Harry in Videodrome, many rockers have felt compelled to appear in a horror movie. The latest musical act to make their bloody mark on the genre is Foo Fighters who star in the horror-comedy Studio 666, and EW has your first look at the trailer.

In the film, the Foo Fighters move into an Encino, Calif., mansion steeped in grisly rock and roll history to record their much anticipated 10th album. Once in the house, frontman Dave Grohl finds himself grappling with supernatural forces that threaten both the completion of the album and the lives of the band.
