Turo is stuck in a small village and the best thing in his life is being the lead vocalist for the amateur metal band Impaled Rektum. He and his bandmates have practiced for 12 years without playing a single gig. The guys get a surprise visitor from Norway - the promoter for a huge heavy metal music festival - and decide it's now or never. They steal a van, a corpse, and a mental patient along the way.
Did someone say... symphonic post-apocalyptic reindeer-grinding christ-abusing extreme war pagan fennoscandian metal?
Additional programme
There will be a special selection on Finlandia vodka cocktails available from the Star and Shadow bar, so be sure to grab a drink before the film! The bar will stay open after the film, where we will be playing Finnish metal and displaying the amazing Belzebubs art by Finnish comic artist JP Ahonen (by his kind permission).
PLUS! The best battle vest worn on the night will win a bag of disgusting Finnish candy!
