Another fun packed lesson full of intense learning that grips you to the most extreme concentrations. :P

I'm also curious about why the movie was so damn good.

you may have seen me. I was wearing a leather and a Lizzy shirt. I had to leave pretty quick after the film to get the last train.

I bloody hope so! According to the producer they're not likely to be showing it again in the UK unless they get invited back to another film festival.

Yes they do plan to release it on DVD, though I don't know when. It is obviously not a huge budget thing so I don't know how available they will be, but it is well worth tracking down for everyone here to see.

I really enjoyed the film - it has looooads of interviews ranging from Lars Ulrich and Slayer, Gene Hoglan, to Mille and Angelripper, right up to the no doubt less popular Phil Anselmo, Corey Taylor and Chimaira - but all are interesting and illustrate what thrash was like 'back in the day'.

As someone said, Mustaine's comments were pretty entertaining, and I also thought Blitz from Overkill was a right laugh! At one point he shares the joke:

- "what has two thousand pairs of legs and two breasts?"
- "an Overkill show!"

:lol:

Another great moment was when someone commented that every thrasher is actually a tiny part of Paul Baloff! =D>

I thought it was excellent how it covered so many themes as well, discussing the thrash scene area-by-area, but also other things from the dress code to moshing, stage diving and the impact of grunge.

The film was clearly made by a thrash fan and for thrash fans, and I think that was the best thing about it.

Atom and I had a drink and a long talk afterwards with Rick the Director, as well as the Assistant Producer (and former Overkill drummer) Rat Skates: both really great people and I'm sure Tom will agree, a very inspiring discussion.

So what more can be said? Thanks to them for four years of hard work on this film, and it's a treat for anyone who's into thrash!

You can feel the love put into this film when you are watching it. You KNOW its made by a hardcore fan, it has a really cool 'I was there' vibe too it but not in a bad way, it makes you feel like your backstage or something.
