“Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The film's soundtrack was released to CD in 2006. Allmusic gave it a favorable review, writing that "if you are looking for one of the most outrageously bad exploitation/horror movie soundtracks, get your hands on this one pronto."^[2]

Plot

Recording some new music in an isolated farmhouse in Canada, the band Triton gets more than they bargained for when something horrifying stirs in the darkness. Eternal evil haunts this place and the band members start turning into demons from Hell itself. After a day of making music – and making love – this band is starting to break up. The band's lead singer, John (Jon-Mikl Thor) Triton, holds the key to defeating this horror once and for all – a secret that culminates in a battle between good and evil: Triton versus the Devil himself.

Production

Production began in 1986 and the film had a budget of $100,000. It was shot in seven days. Originally titled The Edge of Hell, the filming was set to last ten days, but one of the producers had to shorten production due to a death in the family. The director used many friends as actors and the film was filmed in Ontario. The film had its title changed to help sell it in the markets.

Reception

In the years following its release the movie has received positive reviews over its campy nature, which multiple reviewers feel gives unintentional entertainment.^[4] Not Coming to a Theater Near You commented that the movie was "a cheap, incompetently rendered film, but it is not a deceptive one".^[5] Antagony & Ecstasy shared similar opinions, writing: "The movie has absolutely everything you could possibly want from high-spirited trash: a menagerie of uniformly dodgy foam monsters, an especially dodgy foam Beelzebub in the climax, clumsy dialogue, bizarrely flat performances, an ending that straight-up makes no sense, fantastically misplaced ambition, and a scene where a blond with too much mascara and huge tits parades around in a shower."^[6]

Sequel

In 2005 a sequel Intercessor: Another Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare featuring Jon Mikl Thor was made.^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]
