Description

Interviews with: Bjorn Almar (organizer Hammerslagfestival Vinterblot), Rimfrost, Svartahrid, Vreid, Mordichrist,Watain, Ondskapt, Shining. This documentary film is about how the modern Vikings of Scandinavia took the music genre Black Metal to its darkest abyss in the mid 90s, and turned words into action and declared war against Christianity. But it all started a thousand years ago, when the Vikings ruled the North... Church burning, grave desecration, Satanism and murder. Black Metal Satanica is an in-depth documentary capturing the dark, mystical and evil history of the Black Metal genre. Based on Scandinavian Viking lore, Black Metal borrows from ancient Viking melodies, lyrics and mythology dating back to the 11th century. The new wave of Black Metal heroes give their take on the current state of the genre as well as on the founding fathers of Black Metal like Mayhem, Bathory and Immortal and the extreme, almost inhuman acts that surround this controversial subculture. Self-mutilation, murder, suicide, church-burning, the desecration of graves and corpses are all covered here in shocking and graphic detail! Mats Lundberg New York International Independent Film & Video Festival awarded Black Metal Satanica as a best music documentary. Mats Lundbergs document will also be released in the United States first in cinemas and then in DVD. Mats Lundberg has previously made music videos for metal bands, including Thunderbolt, Tristan, and Paul DiAnno.
