I liked the film very much. It was fun, and it really showed the makers love for metal-music. Of course this shouldn't be mistaken for serious social sience but I was actually glad the film wasn't too serious. For me and probably I liked the film very much.

But my biggest complaint is that Christian metal was left out entirely. As a teen, I had to defend my love for God-Rock from two factions of critics: my church family, and the metalheads & record store groupies. I'm glad he has updated the Heavy Metal documentary genre, but this DVD made me long for so much more.… Expand
