Overview

At an old farmhouse, a family mysteriously dissapears at the hands of evil. Years later, hair metal band The Tritons comes to the farmhouse, whose barn now features a 24-track recording studio. Lead singer John Triton gets the band to perform their first night in the farmhouse after dinner, and weird little beasties suddenly appear, and strange things start to happen. Band members (and their tag along girlfriends) begin to act strangely and vanish one by one. Soon, only John Triton remains, and he holds a secret. Finally, the evil shows itself and a battle between heaven and hell ensues….

Viewing Notes

Rock ‘n’ Roll Nightmare – ultra-popular hair metal band, Triton, moves in to a country farmhouse that has a dark history to record their new album. (the barn’s been converted into a recording studio, natch) The band members cavort with groupies and fuck around a lot while a mysterious presence kills them off one-by-one. When only the lead singer, John Triton (played like a B-movie god by Jon Mikl Thor, who also wrote and produced), remains, he must face off with the evil entity in an epic metal-fueled good-v-evil battle (in a barn). The twist revealed during this showdown is mind-blowing.
