The tune later appeared in the 2006 video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories on the fictional in-game radio station "V-Rock".

"Looks That Kill" has become a fan favorite. It is regularly featured in Mötley Crüe's live performances. The video marked the band's inaugural appearance on mainstream MTV.

The track was written by bassist Nikki Sixx and spent 10 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, peaking at #54. On the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, it peaked at #12.

Music video
The music video was filmed at A&M Records' main sound stage. It features the band in a post-apocalyptic setting where they trap a group of women in a cage while performing the song.

The band follows and surrounds her, but she disappears, leaving a flaming pentagram on the ground.
