Lords of Chaos - Le Film
https://i.imgur.com/w2RHe7h.jpg?1" alt="" />
We're excited to announce that 20th Century Fox and Insurgent Media have signed on to help VICE Films bring you a film adaptation of the seminal Norwegian black metal book,. [size=150]Lords of Chaos[/size]
Jonas Åkerlund, who directed Spun, will direct the film off a script he co-wrote. Rory Culkin is set to star.
The original 1998 Lords of Chaos book by Michael Moynihan and co-writer Didrik Søderlind tracked the career of early 90s Norwegian black metal pioneers Mayhem, from their violent, bloody stage performances to the infamous church burnings to the subsequent murder of guitarist Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth by Varg "Count Grishnackh" Vikernes, who stabbed Aarseth to death in 1993.
Culkin will play Euronymous in the film adaptation, with Emory Cohen as Varg Vikernes, Jack Kilmer as Dead, and Sky Ferreira as a band groupie named Ann-Marit.
VICE Films will produce the Lords of Chaos feature alongside Fox, Insurgent, Kwesi Dickson, Chimney Pot, and Eleven Arts.
A noter que Jonas Åkerlund fut le premier batteur de Bathory et est connu pour réaliser des clips (dernièrement Beyoncé). Ca fait près d'une quinzaine d'années que l'on en parle (au début cela devait être un simple film d'horreur) et cela semble se concrétiser. Ca ne sentait pas vraiment bon dès le départ, encore plus avec l'ajout de VICE. Et je me demande comment va réagir Varg à l'annonce de l'acteur qui va l'incarner...

Beaucoup de gens lui ont posé la question via les commentaires de sa chaîne youtube, mais il ne s'est pas [encore] exprimé sur le sujet.
Mais bon, déjà qu'il dénigre volontiers le bouquin

New poster for 'Lords of Chaos' revealed!
The film stars Rory Culkin as Euronymous, Anthony De La Torre as Hellhammer, Emory Cohen as Varg and Sky Ferreira as Ann-Marit. The movie is directed by Jonas Åkerlund, who in addition to being a renowned director, also happened to be a former Bathory drummer.
The film will premiere at the Sundance Film Festival later this month, and music from Sigur Rós will appear in the film. A 2018 release is expected.
Ca fait vachement envie

Il l'a fait depuis...
Donc les gars font un film sur des groupes de musique dont aucun d'entre eux n'a donné son autorisation pour utiliser sa musique, ça promet...
tout le monde dira que c'est pourri, mais tout le monde ira le voir
Exactement! Comme quoi les Blackists sont comme les autres!
Sauf qu'il y a tout de même une différence entre aller voir ce film par adhésion, et aller le voir par curiosité.
Forcément, ça parle de BM (qui plus est des
Pour ma part je n'irai pas le voir au ciné, j'attendrai que cette daube soit dispo sur torrent. Comme je l'avais fait pour le sous-navet

En plus, le réalisateur de ce film, de ce que j'en ai entendu, ça a juste l'air d'être un gros opportuniste qui veut faire du fric. Il suffit de se pencher sur la biographie du gars pour s'en rendre compte.

Re: Lords of Chaos
Je vois tellement de navets au cinéma que cela ne me dépaysera pas.
XD
De toute façon rien ne dit que ce truc sortira en salle chez nous, ça sent plutôt le
Et quand bien même il sortirait au cinoche, c'est le genre de film qui restera tout juste une semaine à l'affiche, à raison d'une séance par jour dans la plus petite salle...
C'était déjà le cas avec les seuls films/docs consacrés au Metal que j'ai pu voir au ciné (c'est à dire
En France on n'aime pas les films sur le Metal, ça n'intéresse personne et c'est pas vendeur.

Pas de sortie en France visiblement
Voilà, le contraire m'aurait étonné.
En même temps, c'est plus que souvent des navets les films qui traitent de ce sujet...
Le film sur Metallica est plutôt sympa. Faute de les avoir vu en concert, leurs grands classiques en Dolby Surround, ça passe bien. Faut aimer Metallica et Dane DeHaan quoi...
Et c'était la seule fois où j'ai pu boire de la bière en gobelet au ciné

Re: Lords of Chaos - Le Film
Heavy metal has, like most popular music genres, gone through some pretty wild transmutations since its creation. Simply saying you like “metal” seems absurdly broad. There is a theatricality to the genre that is part of the attraction for fans, but Jonas Åkerlund’s Lords of Chaos looks at what happened when the Norwegian black metal scene curdled into something genuinely deadly, and manages to do it with more humor, style, and humanity than I would have guessed possible.
When I was young, metal and punk were both important to me because they were a release, rebellion in music form. I went to high school just outside of Tampa, and there was a huge local underground death metal scene. I was in TV production with half of the band Executioner. Kids my age had their own labels and their own albums, recorded and released locally, and you could go pick up their albums at Peaches Records and Tapes just like the new one from Iron Maiden. When a band like Maiden would play town, a local band like the comically inept Savatage would open for them. The punk scene in Ybor City was wild and robust, and local bands played right alongside touring acts. There was an authenticity and an energy to all of it, which was part of the appeal. It was my music. My parents hated it and that only made it better.
Authenticity is a key issue for Øystein “Euronymous” Aarseth (Rory Culkin) as he struggles to get his band Mayhem started in the mid-‘80s. They don’t want to be a metal band;
they want to be the metal band. They want to be famous for being so terrifying and so extreme that parents destroy their records and warn their children away from them. After a few false starts, Mayhem comes together with “Dead” Ohlin (Jack Kilmer) on vocals, Jørn “Necrobutcher” Stubberud (Jonathan Barnwell) on the bass, Aarseth on guitar, and Jan Axel “Hellhammer” Blomberg (Anthony De La Torre) on drums. They live together in a house in the woods, and they do everything together. Dead is a late discovery, but as soon as Euronymous hears him and starts hanging around him, it’s clear that Dead is not playing around. He is unbalanced, seriously attracted to the smell and taste of death, and unafraid to hurt himself on stage as part of his act. Euronymous recognizes that Dead gives off a doomed air, and he leans into it, encouraging it, even as he loves their growing infamy.
Then Dead cuts his own throat and blows his head off.
Up to that point, there’s a shaggy, amiable charm to the film, and that’s what is so crafty about what screenwriters Dennis Magnusson and Åkerlund have done with Michael Moynihan’s book. Up till now, most of what I’ve seen or read about the entire Norwegian black metal scene has been written in a way that romanticized the scene and leaned into the “real evil” of it all. Don’t get me wrong… there were terrible things done by these guys… but the film is not afraid to point at them and say, “They’re kind of ridiculous, and they’re just kids who were trying to sell records at first, and Satan doesn’t have anything to do with this.” When Dead kills himself, instead of shutting down the band, Euronymous decides to exploit it. He photographs the body. He encourages rumors that he ate some of Dead’s brain, that the band wears necklaces made of his skull, that they all drank a stew made from his body. And when Varg Vikernes (Emory Cohen) finally introduces himself to Euronymous, he is a fanboy who believes wholeheartedly in the image they’ve been selling, which seems fine at first.
Emory Cohen has given several good performances before now in films like Brooklyn and Hot Summer Nights and The Place Beyond The Pines, but I think it’s safe to say this is his first great performance. “Varg” is what Euronymous calls a “poser” when he first shows up on the fringe of everything. He’s got a Scorpions patch on his denim jacket, for god’s sake. Euronymous keeps him around because it’s nice to see how much of an impact Mayhem has on people. It feeds his ego. By this point, he’s purchased a record store that he named Helvete (which is, of course, “Hell” in Norwegian) which has a stone cellar that he decorates as his special “dark chapel.” It’s all super-serious, and more than anything, Varg wants to be at the center of it. He listens to the way Euronymous talks, the hodge-podge of shock philosophies (a little bit of Satan, a dash of Hitler, a spritz of Communism), and he sees it as a real call to action, not the costume the band wears onstage. Euronymous constantly seems to be trying to find the line. How far can he go? One of the reasons Dead’s suicide affects him so deeply is because it is “real” in a way that Euronymous knows he can’t be. Instead, he talks this big game, making up this evil fantasy world that he controls. And Varg, unfortunately, can’t be controlled once he’s in motion. Euronymous does too good a job, and watching the way Cohen plays the transformation from clueless poser to genuine wrecking ball, he’s amazing.
Åkerlund knows that when there is violence in the film, he can’t play it for laughs, and he can’t undersell it. There’s a running bit in the film where someone’s always watching Peter Jackson’s Dead Alive’s goriest moments, and it’s played so big and broad that it’s clear that it’s meant to be silly. When the film gets to some of the most difficult moments in the true story, Åkerlund works very hard to make sure that you feel every bit of the violence as an invasion, an affront. There was a guy named Faust (played here by Valter Skarsgård) who stabbed a homosexual man who propositioned him, and Åkerlund includes all 37 of the stab wounds, and he makes sure you’re close, that you feel them like a physical punch on the soundtrack, and that he shows you what happens as the lungs and the spine and his stomach are all punctured. It is brutal and unflinching, and all of a sudden, nothing about the film is fun. There is a clear ethical choice that Åkerlund has made in terms of how he shows these events, and I respect where he stands on it. He knows that there are still people who read about all of this and they think of Mayhem as the most legitimately metal band possible because of how horrible the story is by the end of things. Euronymous got what he wanted. He got infamy. They set the bar very high for other bands who wanted to project an evil image. After all, Varg started burning down churches all over the country, some of them over a thousand years old. Between that and Faust’s murder, Euronymous starts to realize that he’s helped create something that he can’t control at all, something that is real, something that has teeth and blades and a real fury.
I admire the way the film plays with the conventions of the “rise and fall of a rock band” movie, and it’s well-cast across the board. More than anything, I admire the way it deflates the mythology that somehow always attaches itself to death. Euronymous wanted to use death, to ride death, to cloak himself in it so he could be famous, but he underestimated its hunger, and in the end, the scene was too outrageous to persist. It depended on a sense of one-upsmanship that was dangerous and, in the end, fatally destructive. It is a hard film, and many audiences will not be able to handle the unflinching honesty of the violence, but it is a clear-eyed film, and a huge step forward from his debut film Spun. Here’s hoping the wait for Åkerlund’s next does not take as long.

Re: Lords of Chaos - Le Film
“What Culkin, Åkerlund &
co. deliver is less a biopic than a horror movie. As the story of a band run amok, it’s decent enough. But as a true-crime case study that happens to involve headbanging, upside-down crosses, vandalism, delinquency and some bitchin’ concert t-shirts, ‘Chaos’ reigns.”
From Ali Shimkus at Slug:
“If you’re looking for a movie with a sympathetic protagonist, you’re not going to find it here. However, it still made for an extremely gripping film that sticks in your mind long after it is over, and Culkin and Cohen’s performances were both chilling and memorable.”
From Noel Lawrence at Screen Anarchy:
“Most importantly, Åkerlund executes a somewhat remarkable feat in that the audience finds itself sympathizing with the characters despite all of the arson and bloodshed. As with Scorsese’s ‘Goodfellas,’ we find ourselves rooting for some rather despicable figures. Perhaps, I would be tempted to call the phenomenon ‘Stockholm Syndrome’ but for the fact that the film takes place in Oslo. Regardless, this pic will please metal fans and outsiders alike.”

Je suis tombé là-dessus :
Ils ont encore placé un des fils Skarsgård, décidément ils sont partout
Sinon, je ne connaissais pas Sky Ferreira...
Mais pour le coup j'avoue qu'elle me donne envie de voir le film
Par contre je l'imagine plus en copine dépravée d'un des membres de Mayhem plutôt qu'en "maire d'Oslo" !
