Heavy metal and high-thrill cinema have been joined together like mutant twins since before the band Black Sabbath adopted the name of a chilling Italian horror film. The unadulterated journey of Heavy Metal Movies spans concert movies and trippy midnight flicks, inspirational depictions of ancient times and future apocalypses, and raw handheld digital video obsessions. As brash, irreverent, and visceral as both the music and the movies themselves, Heavy Metal Movies is the ultimate guidebook to the complete molten musical cinema experience.
Exploding with way over 666 true headbanger classics—raging with disturbing documentaries, bulging barbarians, Satanic shockers, spluttery slashers, post-nuke dystopias, carnivorous chunk-blowers, undead gut-munchers, midnight mind-benders, concert films, killer cameos—plus witches, werewolves, bikers, aliens, lesbian vampires, and vengeful vikings galore...the heaviest sin-ematic sensations of all time!

Leo K. ★★★★★

The chapter tracing how horror flicks and metal bands fed off each other in the 70s is worth the price alone, and the film stills are printed on heavy, glossy paper that feels great to flip through. I’ve already dog-eared half the pages for movies I need to track down.

Sebastian H. ★★★★★

Bought this for my dad who grew up on vinyl and VHS, and we ended up fighting over who got to read it first. The way it traces the link between horror films and metal bands from the very beginning is exactly the deep-dive I was hoping for, and it's got that gritty, obsessive energy the subject deser

Hazel ★★★★★

It’s a fun read that digs deep into the metal-cinema connection, and the chapter on Italian horror’s influence is a real standout. I’ve read a lot of music books, but this one’s angle on how genre films shaped the scene felt genuinely fresh.
