Theatrical premiere of a new transfer!

‍

Every year we show exclusively shot-on-videotape works throughout September for something we call: SOV SEPTEMBER. Join us for this year's month-long exploration into the depths of some of the most under-appreciated margins of filmmaking. Usually no-budget, usually put together by small crews of friends (and family members, and neighbors), sometimes over-the-top gross, sometimes transgressive, and almost always like no other film you've ever seen - this series is for cinematically adventurous travelers only!

‍

A gang of degenerate metalheads dabble in the occult, make enemies with local toughs, and embark on a revenge plot after they are transformed into vampires.
