Misfits can be kinda hit-or-miss for me at times, but Horror Business is the type of song they do well. It's short, fast-paced, and has a real punchy aggression to it. The subject matter is theorized to be a combination of the film Psycho and the murder case of Nancy Spungen in 1978 (assumed to have been killed by her boyfriend Sid Vicious of the Sex Pistols). Despite the amount of backstory behind the inspiration for the song, the song itself is very vague, taking the perspective of a killer threatening to stab the listener in a bathroom. It's certainly as villainous an idea as you could ask for, even if it doesn't make an effort to really explain it all.
