Splatter + metal + summoned demon = Fun guaranteed!

I think it's so obvious but I'll say it anyway, this is a great movie people! As a die-hard fan of metal and splatter, how could you not appreciate something capable of bringing them together, creating a perfect combination, with a hilarious plot that will captivate you at every moment. It's impossible not to notice a certain inspiration from Splatters, the brain-splitters, (another New Zealand production that made history, in which gore reigned supreme), and some homage to the return of the living dead and other great classics.

There are many memorable, hilarious and appreciable moments, such as the protagonist eating ice cream with face painting, the loaned Anal cunt CD on the first date, or the dildo used as a weapon (yes, there's that too).

Brodie, played by Milo Carwthorne, is a teenager with a passion for metal music. A loser, an outcast, he finds himself living with his religious and bigoted uncles, a very nice little picture. As if that wasn't enough, he is tormented by his cousin and the school bullies, however, he also seems to arouse the interest of the beautiful Medina (which will obviously bring him more trouble).

One day he meets Zakk, (James Blake), another rough and rebellious metalhead, and with him, he decides to form a band, and from then on, we'll see some good ones. Brodie's nerdy friends join the group, a choice that might seem slightly out of place, but the combination has its reason, and makes the gimmick nice. An evil musical score will turn their lives upside down when, by playing it, they will evoke all sorts of evil. (The scene of the people starting to bleed profusely while the boys play that powerful melody is beautiful).


Resend all he hell, the infamous demon and his army will be an arduous and tiring task, but our heroes will do their best, starting an amazing fight.

Jason Lei Howden's directorial debut promises well and sparks, giving birth to an absolutely enjoyable eighties-style horror comedy. Milo Cawthorne and James Blake do very well in roles that seem to fit them like gloves. I can only applaud the film's soundtrack, and hope that the sequel will maintain high musical standards as well as those inherent to the screenplay and its development. I know that the fundraising to produce the sequel recently ended, and I can't help but hope to soon see this new adventure, which among imposing riffs, severed heads and thundering chainsaws, won't be too scary, but of smiles, he will tear it to excess.
