Join RUE MORGUE MAGAZINE’s Yasmina Ketita, columnist and video series host for THE REWIND ZONE, for an ’80s Heavy Metal Horror screening of BLACK ROSES.
Heavy metal band Black Roses arrive to a small town to play for 3 nights before heading to their next destination, despite the town’s conservative parents’ opposition. High school teacher Matthew (John Martin) senses that the band has something more sinister in mind than just playing music. Black Roses singer Damian (Sal Viviano), the band’s lead demon, is hellbent on hypnotizing the town’s teenagers into a homicidal trance using his satanic powers of rock and roll. Turn up the volume, turn down the lights, but don’t watch it alone!
