Heavy metal blood bath Deathgasm has undergone some revisions at Walmart HQ. To Walmart shoppers, ‘Deathgasm’ will now be known as ‘Heavy Metal Apocalypse’ and where the once prevalent pentagram stood, now stands… guns. Hmm…
We are sticking to our guns (or should we say pentagrams…) here in the UK as Deathgasm will still be called ‘Deathgasm’ when it comes to DVD & Blu-ray 29th February from Studiocanal.
A hilarious and outrageous blood soaked adventure, Deathgasm is a perfect crossover for horror film and heavy metal music fans. Featuring an amazing original soundtrack of fist-banging metal and practical effects by Main Reactor (Evil Dead remake), this brutal and bad-ass debut from Jason Lei Howden will gush bodily fluids, rain limbs and tickle your funny bone, before tearing it out and giving you a stiff beating with it!
Metal-thrashing Brodie is an outcast in a sea of jocks and cheerleaders until he meets a kindred spirit in fellow metalhead Zakk. After starting their own band, Brodie and Zakk’s resentment of the suburban wasteland leads them to a mysterious piece of sheet music said to grant Ultimate Power to whoever plays it. But the music also summons an ancient evil entity known as Aeloth The Blind One, who threatens to tear apart existence itself. With their classmates and family possessed by demonic forces and becoming psychotic murderers , it’s up to Brodie, Zakk and their friends to stop a force of pure evil from devouring all of mankind!
Funny, here in Canada the Wally Marts do have the awesome pentagram slip cover, not that ‘Heavy Metal Apocalypse’ alternate safe cover art.
Stupid fucking Walmart
