The new independent heavy metal horror movie DEATH METAL has just released on TubiTV.
DEATH METAL is the passion project of writer-director Michael Kuciak, who also edited and produced the film.
DEATH METAL stars Shadia Martin, Nico Zahniser, Chris Richards, KateLynn Newberry, Kara Joy Reed, E. Ray Goodwin (who also served as stunt coordinator), Jonny Yurco, Stefanie Barber, Tom Kondilas, Carmen Gangale, and Joe Gaal (who also worked on fx makeup).
DEATH METAL is being released by Bayview/VIPCO. It was produced by Michael Alden, and Ian Holt of Alt-House Productions; Elzbieta Szoka of Perryloop Productions; Dan Gutschmidt (who also composed the score); and Kuciak under his production company Blast Furnace Media. Kyle Severn (of the death metal band Incantation) is an associate producer.
DEATH METAL lives up to its title with a crushingly heavy soundtrack that includes songs by Incantation (who also appear on stage in the film), Cannibal Corpse, Embalmer, The Convalescence, Shed the Skin, FaithXTractor, Blackfinger, and others.
DEATH METAL was shot in Ohio, including an opening sequence at the famous Agora in Cleveland.
