He absolutely was. He saw it and was haunted by the movie which inspired the song. And ironically in a full circle, I first heard the song in a haunted house video I have, found the song, then the movie which is a horror movie. And still a truly haunting and beautiful poetic horror movie..
Thank you, Criterion collection.

He's surprisingly cultured. He's also a big fan of Emily Dickinson's writing.

Wow, I never realised she was singing "les yeux sans visage". I even knew that was the French title of the film, but I never put it together.

Billy Idol talks about how the film inspired him on his "Storytellers" DVD.

auch!
thanks for link.
this is weird as movie itself:
Idol's memories of the video are painful ones. His contact lenses dried out during the shoot, and when he fell asleep on a flight to his next gig in Arizona, they fused to his eyes. He had to get his corneas scraped at a hospital and wear bandages on his eyes for three days.
