I really REALLY like Dead Skin Mask. Probably the only time that Slayer has benefited from the growth in production values post-Reign in Blood.

I still champion 'Hell Awaits', though. Reign In Blood, and Seasons in the Abyss are way to formulaic, and predictable. Plus Hell Awaits had those psychotically long insanely fast instrumental sections. Which for me, is what makes good Thrash.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
