After his meth-addict mum is sent to a mental asylum, teenage metal-head Brodie (Milo Cawthorne) moves to the suburban town of Greypoint to live with his bible-bashing Uncle Albert (Colin Moy), Aunt Mary (Jodie Rimmer), and obnoxious cousin David (Nick Hoskins-Smith). There he befriends role playing game-nerds Dion and Giles (Sam Berkley and Daniel Cresswell) and wild rocker Zakk (James Blake), with whom he forms a band, Deathgasm. When the guys chance upon and perform a song written by Satanic metal star Ricky Daggers (Stephen Ure), they unwittingly unleash a plague of demons that possess the locals and kill the living in order to pave the way for the coming of an ancient evil known as Aeloth, The Blind One. With the help of axe-wielding blonde hottie Medina (Kimberley Crossman), the metal-heads try to find a way to prevent Hell on Earth. Is there anything more sublime in this world than a heavy metal horror movie? The world's foremost form of music fused with the greatest genre of film known to man to create an exquisite elysian experience for connoisseurs of peerless audio visual entertainment. If I'm brutally honest, the script for Deathgasm is a bit of a mess, the action lurching awkwardly from one scene to the next, but its combination of metal mayhem and outrageous splatter is so irresistible that a completely coherent narrative is of little consequence. The riffs are heavy and the gore is very gory (with the graphic dismemberment achieved through the use of practical effects), which is what matters most with this type of flick. Directed by Jason Lei Howden, who clearly knows his music and his horror, Deathgasm owes a lot to the splatter classics of Sam Raimi and Peter Jackson, his film possessing a similarly energetic and madcap style. When the demons attack, anything and everything becomes a weapon: an angle grinder, an engine block, a chainsaw, an axe, a weed whacker, a big, black, double-ended *, some love beads, and a pair of vibrators. That's right Deathgasm features a fight scene in which the heroes are armed with sex toys, which should give you some idea of just how demented the film really is. 7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.

Even more than zombies or maniacal killers, it's DEMONS that provide crazy horror directors with the most opportunities to go tremendously over-the-top in the gore and splatter department! Lamberto Bava knew it when he made "Demons" in 1985, Sam Raimi knew it when he accomplished his legendary "The Evil Dead" movies and apparently some pleasantly deranged New Zealander by the name of Jason Lei Howden knows it too, judging by the humongous gore- factor in his flick "Deathgasm". This recommendable little flick offers nothing new or even remotely original to the genre, but it definitely qualifies as pure and undemanding horror entertainment containing all the essential ingredients such as fast pacing, tongue-in-cheek dialogs, cute references towards movie/music classics and literally gallons of blood & pus! The basic plot concept cleverly plays with the ancient cliché that metal heads are Satan-worshipers and that the lyrics of their songs are aimed at summoning demons and other nasty creatures. In the sleepy little town of Greypoint, the social outcast Brodie coincidentally gets his geeky metal hands on music and lyrics called "the black hymn". When he and his amateur band called Deathgasm rehearse it in his uncle's garage, the universe's most evil force descends to earth and turns all villagers into bloodthirsty demons. Among all victims, Satan is scouting for the most evil human soul to possess and this just might be Brodie's metal buddy Zakk. "Deathgasm" is a fun movie, but certainly nothing more than that, and I wouldn't go as far as some of my fellow reviewers around here that label it as one of the best genre outing of the last years. The gore and make-up effects are well-handled but often too absurd and especially too tasteless for my liking. The best example to illustrate this is an extended sequence in which a supposedly normal middle-class and religious couple are beaten to death by the the sex-toys (like a gigantic black * and anal beads) that are hidden in their bedroom. The funniest thing about New Zealand movies is that pretty much all cast and crew members previously worked on most of the Lord of the Ring movies, either as extras or as visual effects people. There are also a couple of cute references and tributes towards Peter Jackson's earliest splatter movies "Bad Taste" and "Braindead". Ideal stuff to watch late at night with a bunch of friends or – like I did – at a festival in the company of 200 gore-crazed horror freaks.

So this is what metal is? I now know. it is a slow and weird pop rock with ballads and goofy make up like Duran Duran and Suicide Squad. Wow I hated the piano player. I fell asleep. It was even poppier than spa music.

Ummmm... beating demons in the head with a discovered * stash and suiting up for the apocalypse with corpse paint and guitars rigged with table saws... need I say more?? Saw this at a film festival in Tucson and dragging more of my friends to see it in a few weeks in Phoenix. I had been looking forward to this movie for weeks and it did not disappoint!! Everything a fan of this genre could ask for and more- metal themed, gore, dark humor... One of the best movies I've seen In a long time. The actors were brilliant and effects very well done. As a metal head who appreciates a good horror movie and a good laugh at ourselves, I can't possibly say enough good things about this movie. I will be purchasing when it as available, but I highly recommend seeing it in the theater with a few drinks and some like minded friends. It's been a week since we saw it and we're still quoting it. ;) Brotherhood of steel!! \m/(><)\m/

It started great, nice little introduction into characters and their persona. Comedy felt great for the atmosphere and i was drawn into it. It's all going perfect and i cant believe it, then comes the love scene, this is OK, but it was too typical teen movie problem but i can get over it. After about 45mins comedy starts feeling childish and dumb, d**ks, s**t and dil**s. It slowly loses it's comedy charm it had at the beginning after 10 jokes that feel the same. There is a hand scene (I wont spoil it) that feels like it was undone but I feel Evil Dead fans will love the reference. Also the ending was too fast and it made no sense. I love that some characters die just like that, but after an hour and a half of not showing them I can't feel sympathy for them. All in all good movie, I liked it, I know people here say "so-so movie" and give it 7/10. I thought it was OK metal fun and I rate it 6/10

thats a horrible movie, waste of time, nothing more i m a metal fan & i hated it . any moron who has a cam can make a better movie - thank you(!) for stealing my time. IMDb insists on , minimum length of reviews but its totally useless , what can someone able to write ten lines about such a movie, watching a WC for one and half hours would be more fun . i d like to ask the producers that, did you really look for the ugliest and most talentless players of all time and who has written the scenario , a 6yo half-witted ? it would be great that, such incompetents would not be encouraged with ratings above 6 in IMDb. many people would have a very wrong opinion about it and fall in the mistake of watching it , i d be really shamed if i d pick that one to watch with friends
