Although the Cramps rejected the idea of being part of the psychobilly scene, they, along with artists such as Screamin 'Jay Hawkins and Meteors , considered the precursors of the movement. Musically speaking, there was also the background scenery garage rock and pub rock since the '60s and early '70s, not to mention the artist better known as Legendary Stardust Cowboy , a precursor of psychobilly.

The first band was considered psychobilly Meteors, formed in South London in 1980 . With a member who was part of the rockabilly subculture, others involved with the punk subculture and a third who was a fan of horror films, musical ideas gathered and formatted the genre as it exists today. The Meteors also invented the concept of psychobilly be apolitical, encouraging their shows area to be "non-politicized" function to avoid fights between fans, as was becoming applicant in the punk scene of the time.

And one of the most disturbingly violent films I've ever seen.
"Utterly gripping, deeply unsettling and genuinely terrifying, this is a brilliantly directed, superbly written British horror film with terrific performances from its three leads."
