Blood Tracks (1985) (UK/Sweden)

aka Heavy Metal/Shocking Heavy Metal

⭐️⭐️⭐️


The band Solid Gold (portrayed by the Swedish band Easy Action who started out as the duo Noice and eventually had a member leave to join the band Europe) head out to the mountains with a small film crew and some groupies to shoot a scene for their music video. Unfortunately their director likes the ambience an abandoned factory offers and starts shooting around it. The factory isn’t as abandoned as everyone believes. A few decades ago, a woman murdered her abusive drunk of a husband and fled with her kids into the mountains. Now, the deformed clan defend their home turf with murderous glee. An avalanche causes further complications, trapping the idiots in the area with very little communication thanks to the mountains. The bodies start dropping and a local helicopter pilot attempts to save the day. Snowbound slasher/backwoods hybrid doesn’t reinvent the wheel or anything but there are some memorable kills, some wretched acting and the cold setting provides a refreshing atmosphere.
