I Am The Sum Of All Evils
By Allan Parker from Aberdeen, Scotland , 02 Apr 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
Heavy Metal is a classic. Made back in the early Eighties it featured voices from Harold Ramis, Eugene Levy and the late John Candy.
Produced by Ivan Reitman(Ghostbusters), It featured a varied selection of short stories, all linked together through a story about a green ball of evil. From Zombie Deamons on a B-17 to the trial of Captain Stern each sketch is unique and well drawn.
As the title suggests the movie contains Heavy Metal music by Black Sabbath, Nazareth, Cheap Trick and more. It also includes an orchestral soundtrack by Elmer Bernstein which is truly one of his greatest achievements.
I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes drugs, sex, violence and comedy in their movies. This movie has it all.- Was this review helpful to you?

Be open-minded!
By a customer , 04 Jan 2012A little surprised this gets low reviews. I think it may be a generation thing. It's quite trippy and doesn't make the greatest amount of sense on first watch. This is more an exercise in the creators' creativity than a cohesive film, and the plot is a little tenuous (bordering on non-existent). However, it is worth watching for the soundtrack alone, and it is definitely entertaining. Ignore preconcecptions with plot and just enjoy the visuals and music.- Was this review helpful to you?
