Cross-media picks for Scorpions fans — films, series, games and books in the same vein.
These picks share the voltage that keeps a great Scorpions record moving: driven energy, a streak of defiance, and the feeling that something real is on the line. Whether it's the underground rock scene fighting for air in Leto, a lone warrior refusing to stay crushed in The Scorpion King, or shredding 80s classics in Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s, the common thread is intensity worn without apology. Books like Black Sabbath: Doom Let Loose and Psychotic Reactions and Carburettor Dung feed the same hunger for music that carries weight.
