Deathgasm was one of my favorite movies of 2015, and it has finally hit Netflix streaming for all to enjoy. This New Zealand gorefest features metalheads who accidentally summon demonic forces and must wage battle on them before their whole town is consumed by the evil forces.
It's a helluva good time, and reminds me a lot of the TV series Todd and the Book of Pure Evil, complete with a rag-tag group of metalheads, creepy cults, metal music, wackiness, demonic possession, and lots of projectile puking and bodily fluids. Its splatstick is in the same outrageous vein as the New Zealand classic goregasm Dead Alive!
While Deathgasm is a bit over the top and goofy and therefore may not be appreciated by all, I certainly had a ton of fun watching it. Its frenetic energy, misfit characters, in-your-face metal spirit, and buckets of blood made it a winner!
You can watch it now streaming on Netflix. If you don't have Netflix, you can also find it on Amazon!
This movie was "metal!" Thanks for the heads up!!
