What were the names of the Doom Factory villains?


I missed most of it when watching, anyone catch what they all were?

And how odd is it to get another gorilla villain, wonder if there's a relation.

They were puns off of Andy Warhols clique in the 70s.
Wes Warhammer/Andy Warhol
Frigid = Brigid Berlin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigid_Berlin
Serpentine = Ondine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ondine_(actor)
Eenie-Meanie = Edie Sedgwick https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edie_Sedgwick
Gerard Gorilla = Gerard Malanga https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerard_Malanga
Ultra Violent = Isabelle Collin Dufresne (Ultra Violet) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabelle_Collin_Dufresne
Billy Maim = Billy Name https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Name
Hard Candy = Candy Darling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_Darling
Trashenstein= ???

I doubt they've thought about connecting the two gorillas. At least they haven't made the subtle connections like they usually do. Looks like they went off the fact that the gorilla name just fits with Gerard Malanga
