Finnish Metal Horror Flick HEAVY TRIP Gets Theatrical and VOD Dates

Now that it’s done playing the festival circuit, Doppelgänger Releasing and Bloody-Disgusting will be releasing Heavy Trip, the first film in their joint venture, in limited theaters as well as VOD platforms this October.

The film will be hitting five cities on October 5 before expanding to more cities on October 10. It then hits VOD platforms on October 12.

Turo is stuck in a small village in the Finnish countryside where his greatest passion is being the lead vocalist for the amateur metal band Impaled Rektum. The only problem is that he and his fellow headbangers have practiced for 12 years without playing a single gig. But that’s all about to change when the guys meet the promoter of a huge heavy metal music festival in Norway and decide it’s now or never. Hitting the road in a stolen van with a corpse, a coffin, and a new drummer from a local mental hospital in tow, Impaled Rektum travels across Scandinavia to make their dreams a reality.

Directed by Juuso Laatio and Jukka Vidgren, Heavy Trip stars Johannes Holopainen, Minka Kuustonen, Max Ovaska, Antti Heikkinen, Samuli Jaskio, Chike Ohanwe, and Ville Tiihonen.
