Here For Blood Review

Heavy metal, as a genre of music, has been synonymous with the film genre of horror for many years, and you can understand why if you know anything about either one of those. Heavy metal bands, especially death metal, thrash, and even some traditional heavy metal bands, have been incorporating horror imagery for decades, especially the 1980s, and if you know anything about the 1980s, that was the pinnacle for the Satanic Panic. That was when Christians decided to point fingers at anything and everything that was deemed “demonic,” whether it was music, including metal, movies, or Dungeons & Dragons, of all things. There were more things that happened, including daycare workers that were accused of being Satanists, but needless to say, the 1980s were a time when heavy metal and horror movies were under attack for being “demonic,” and because of that, a lot of bands and filmmakers leaned into that. Bands and artists like Motley Crew, Ozzy Osborne, Slayer, Cannibal Corpse (although they weren’t big until the mid-90s, but they were a band that Christians loved to hate), Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and many more, were accused of being demonic, Satanic, and all that bullshit. Even today, being a fan of metal, you get that judgement from Christians, but heavier music has gotten a lot more accepted to like, at least for the most part.

The same goes for horror movies, too, as horror is one of the most celebrated genres of film, although it’s also a genre that is known for a lot of garbage. It’s really hard to find a lot of great horror movies these days, but a lot of filmmakers are looking to the past for inspiration, specifically the 1980s. Whether it’s the practical effects, the cheesy and over the top characters and villains, or the overall aesthetic, there’s a lot of media, especially horror, that taps into the 1980s. Stranger Things is a good example of that, as that show really brought the aesthetic of the 1980s into the mainstream, although other shows and movies were doing that, but Stranger Things really made it cool. It also seems like a lot of filmmakers now grew up during that time, so they are incorporating those films and ideas into their own work.

What happens when you take 80s hard-rock and metal, and combine it with 80s horror aesthetics? Well, you’d get the movie Here For Blood, the newest movie from director Daniel Turres, and writer / producer James Roberts. Starring Resident Evil film franchise actor Shawn Roberts, along with Dee Snider of Twisted Sister fame (in voice only), Maya Misaljevic (The Boys), Joelle Farrow, Tara Spencer-Nairn, and Michael Therriault (Chucky), this film is a love letter to 80s metal and over the top 80s horror with gory and bloody practical effects that are both parts funny and grotesque. A ScreamBox original, this movie premieres on the streaming service on February 9th, but I got the chance to watch the movie beforehand, and I was hooked from the synopsis I was provided that painted the movie as an 80s homage to films like Friday The 13th, Nightmare On Elm Street, and even movies like The Thing (at least with its practical effects). From the look of the trailer, the movie seemed over the top, fun, gory, bloody, and a good time.

Sure enough, that’s what I got, but the caveat to Here For Blood is that you need to look past a few things and just look at the movie for what it is. This movie is a ton of fun, but it’s also not a very thought provoking film, meaning that it doesn’t have any esoteric, meta, or ethereal themes that need time to digest after watching it. The plot for this film is basically a wrestler needs to babysit for his girlfriend, because she needs to study for a test in college, and she can’t babysit this girl that she normally babysits, so he ends up doing it for her until she gets back. Well, things go awry in the form of both masked assailants and supernatural demons, or something of that sort. I won’t go into spoilers, but the movie doesn’t explain what the main threat is, and that’s part of the fun of the movie. If you don’t question it, the movie is a ton of fun.

The characters are pretty one-dimensional, but they’re also fun. Roberts, in particular, is a big highlight; he plays a tough as nails wrestler, but he also has a heart of gold, despite being dumb as rocks. He has some of the funniest quips and dialogue in the movie, but a lot of this movie is pretty funny, although there are a few running gags that start off funny, only to get repetitive when they keep doing it. One involves a henchmen of the bad guys getting hurt, whether it’s getting limbs chopped off, or being in pain, and he just screams loudly. They do it three times, and weirdly enough, the first and last times are the funniest. There’s another gag with Dee Snider as the voice of a severed skull, and his only gag is that he screams “Feed me” over and over, and there is a funny conclusion to that, but it gets annoying when that’s all he says.

Here For Blood is a relatively “standard” horror movie that takes a lot from the 80s, but it’s fun. I’d recommend this movie if you want a good time, and don’t care to just let loose, laugh at some jokes, and cringe at the practical effects (some of them do get rather nasty in the best way). The performances are good for what they are, and everything in this movie is solid enough, so I’m glad I saw it. I will say that the only disappointment I really had was that the heavy metal element that was advertised isn’t played up at all, minus Dee Snider being in it, and there are some generic metal songs you hear throughout it, but I wish the soundtrack had more recognizable songs on it. That’s not their fault, probably licensing issues, but for what it is, it’s fine. I had fun with it, either way, especially for a relatively lower budget and indie horror movie. It wears its influences on its sleeve, but its unashamed love for that stuff is what makes this movie very enjoyable. The movie streams on ScreamBox and is in theaters on February 9th, so be sure to catch it when it comes out.

A gory throwback to video store staples of the '80s and '90s, SCREAMBOX Original wrestling-fueled horror-comedy Here for Blood will invade select theaters, digital, and SCREAMBOX on February 9.

Struggling to make ends meet, a rowdy pro wrestler agrees to babysit a precocious 10-year-old girl. What starts off as a laid-back night of junk food and video games quickly spirals into bloody chaos as the secluded home is invaded by a cult of mask-wearing maniacs.

The Resident Evil franchise’s Shawn Roberts stars as the besieged babysitter, while Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider lends his legendary voice to a decapitated skull. Maya Misaljevic (The Boys), Joelle Farrow, Tara Spencer-Nairn, and Michael Therriault (Chucky) co-star.

Directed by Daniel Turres and written by James Roberts, Here for Blood body-slammed audiences on the festival circuit. It won six awards at its Toronto After Dark premiere, including "Best Film to Watch with a Crowd," and went on to play FrightFest (Glasgow and London), IFI Horrorthon (Ireland), and Ramaskrik (Norway).

Currently holding an 88% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie was praised by Film Threat as “a heart-pounding roundhouse punch of a good time.” Daily Dead called it a "fun-as-hell genre bender," and Starburst Magazine commended it as "an entertaining, splatter-filled romp that slams above its weight."

“Here for Blood is the kind of movie weekends were made for, whether you want to see it on the big screen or in the comfort of your own home,” says Brad Miska, Managing Director of Bloody Disgusting/Cineverse. “Step into the shadows of nostalgia with effects so practically perfect that fans of '90s horror are going to think they’ve died and gone to Blockbuster."
