The chapters collected in this volume shed light on the areas of
interaction between film studies and heavy metal research,
exploring how the audio-visual medium of film relates to, builds on
and shapes metal culture. At one end of the spectrum, metal music
serves as a form of ambient background in horror films that creates
an intense and somewhat threatening atmosphere; at the other end,
the high level of performativity attached to the metal spectacle is
emphasized. Alongside these tendencies, the recent and ongoing wave
of metal documentaries has taken off, relying on either satire or
hagiography.
