Get ready for a heavy metal horror extravaganza with a twist of comedy and a whole lot of gore! Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon is finally making its way to the big screen and our digital devices, and it promises to be an event like no other.
A Long-Awaited Return
The sequel to Jason Lei Howden's cult classic Deathgasm has been a decade in the making. Announced back in 2012, Deathgasm 2 has since become a festival favorite, screening at prestigious events worldwide and building anticipation among fans of the original. Now, after a long wait, the film is ready to unleash its unique brand of mayhem upon a wider audience.
The Story: Metal, Magic, and Mayhem
Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon picks up where the first film left off, with Brodie, the lead singer, finding himself in a bit of a slump. Unemployed, single, and lacking ambition, Brodie decides to give his life a much-needed boost by reforming his heavy metal band, DEATHGASM. But there's a catch - his drummer is missing an arm, and the rest of the band is, well, deceased. Undeterred, Brodie dusts off the pages of The Black Hymn and sets about raising his bandmates from the dead, because why not? This sets the stage for a hilarious and gruesome adventure, combining the best elements of heavy metal, black magic, and extreme gore.
A Star-Studded Cast and Crew
Milo Cawthorne and Kimberley Crossman reprise their roles as Brodie and Medina, joined by returning cast members James Blake, Sam Berkley, and Daniel Cresswell. New to the gang are Kieran Charnock, Harrison Keefe, Maggie Robertson, and WWE superstar Adam Scherr, adding some extra muscle and charisma to the mix. Behind the camera, Jason Lei Howden returns as writer and director, bringing his unique brand of action-comedy to the forefront. The film's original score is composed by Trivium frontman Matt Heafy, ensuring an epic musical backdrop to the chaos.
