It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
... View MoreA lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
... View MoreThe story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

... View MoreI loved this movie! A light-hearted, gore-fest for metal heads! Solid script and story, excellent effects, funny, just a little scary- perfect for the genre.If you do not like Metal (and ok, Im trying not to judge and failing) dont even bother. This movie was not made for you so dont waste your time watching it, or ours by writing a pitiful review afterwards.
... View MoreYou think this is stupid and the worst, then you must love Troll 2 then. Dumb people should stay in their own group. Should never be invited to the party. Keep your dumb comments to yourself. This is better than what you call better than this. Almost all PG-13 are lame and tame to what real horror movies like this does.Stick with your teeny boppers and be that childish jerk off teenager lover of wanna be PG-13 horror movies that are more of a thriller that can't handle to be a rate R or unrated movie. So many lame people out there to put down better movies and say that better movies are trash, and the trash is what they watch instead, and they praise that instead.The real dummies come on this site to review movies and can't use grammar well, or even type like they are toddlers to give their own opinion of a movie. Stick to your trash and I will enjoy my better movies that you watch anytime. As for gore, it is the best gore movie out there. Anyone that can't handle should of never watched it in the first place. Dummies!Funny, this is one of the best mixed comedy and horror together. So kiss off! Just like the people that TCITW movie. Either love or hate movie, but way too many haters out there. Oh well, if I ever ran into someone that hated this kind of movie, they would never be talked to or recognized as a person at all. Unless, it is my family, then I can forgive them.People I do not at all, won't bother at all to even acknowledge. So keep to yourself. I actually love Metalcore but this is an awesome movie to watch. I love Dead Alive too. So just stick with tame, dummies.
... View MoreIt's your usual boy meets girl, boy accidentally summons evil entity movie, but super funny and gory. Made in New Zealand and pokes fun at metal heads and really hits the mark.If you enjoyed such horror/comedy hybrids as Scouts Guide To the Zombie Apocalypse or Freaks of Nature, then you will surely find lots to like about Deathgasm. It was a recommendation by a fellow member of the now-deceased Horror message board on here, never would have sought it out or heard about it otherwise.Never really considered a dildo as a viable weapon against zombies...until now! Plenty of laughs and well done gore, check it out!
... View MoreDuring the last 2 years, New Zealand has brought us three very competent horror films with very different styles, but with the common characteristic of an intense love for the genre. Or maybe, it was Peter Jackson's spirit (in life) what inspired these movies. Whatever the way it was, it's very appreciated. The films are Housebound, What We Do in the Shadows and Deathgasm; the latter is a very amusing horror comedy, despite some small narrative problems and occasional structural hesitations. Deathgasm is the first movie from director Jason Lei Howden, and even though I really enjoyed his overflowing energy and relentless enthusiasm, I could occasionally notice his incapacity to facilitate the natural flow of some scenes or eliminate moments which don't make a substantial contribution to the narrative. On the other hand, Howden has wide experience as a special effects artist in WETA Digital, something which guarantees an efficient balance of techniques when building exaggerated sequences which bathe the screen in blood. The characters are well written, and the cast knows when to take the drama seriously, and when to become accomplices of the joke. So, in summary, Deathgasm isn't a great film, but it's definitely an amusing experience which deserves a recommendation to those who like horror, comedy and, of course, heavy metal in its multiple subdivisions and ideological tendencies.
