This movie suckles at the teat of the Evil Dead. The story is really similar, the atmosphere and vibe is very much the splatstick of Evil Dead II, it uses shots and gags straight from Sam Rami's trilogy and honestly, it is kind of shameless about it. Ya know what? It comes off more as wearing your influence on your sleeve than it does a ripoff and the movie is just so much fun it is all groovy. It also very obviously loves Peter Jackson's horror films. So the movie is very much "what if teen metalheads summoned a demon and deadites ran wild." It just works and the cast is a ton of fun, especially Medina. She gets to be a tough, take no prisoners savior of the nerd boys and it is fantastic. The music is great, it has a good look to it, a fun story, great humor. My only complaint is some absolutely bottom dollar CG effects that were obvious and distracting. Otherwise, I had an absolute blast.

If you like films like Evil Dead or the 80s cheesy horror/metal movies like Trick or Treat, Black Roses & Rock N Roll Nightmare you'll almost certainly love this film. A group of heavy metal loving friends get their hands on some obscure metal music, play it, summon demons & then everythig goes wrong. The gore is outrageous, brutal & well done, the characters diverse & funny. Extras include Q&A with director, trailer, teaser, music video, interviews. It also has a reversible cover art which I think looks better then the one it originally shows.
