i love this film . when the world awake form it boring funk and disco and brown yellow orange color slumber after star war shake it awake and revive sci fi and heavy metal appear during the aftershock and create albeit for a small public a visual feast . heavy metal be usually describe a a void fest for stoner and grant with the proper intoxication the movie charm be increase greatly . what make heavy metal so appeal be what many people call it principal flaw and the pubescent joke and violence and plethora of nudity and the crude animation and often it bright explosive color . but these be not flaws and in fact to anyone with a fun love nature and imagination these be virtue . the script be wonderful and with lot of crude joke and that make excellent one liner during party . death and death to all who oppose u have to be a classic introduction line for a villain ( who be menacingly one dimensional . and have anybody wonder where his helmet come from . ) at moment the script even become epic and like during the sequence where the council of elder summon taarna . although the animation maybe date and even downright ugly and it give the movie it charm and the same a ralph bakshi animation give it and it cult charm and those with imagination see what the animator try to accomplish . the background be simply stun . from epic landscape with cycloptic animal skeleton cradle entire city to impressive space vessel and space station ( mark the brick motief of the space station during the sternn sequence and hahaha ) the color scheme of these background be dare and vibrant . and there be boob and lot of voluptuous big breast woman . i think this need no further clarification . the music be excellent . the soundtrack feature a lot of decent hard rock track ( i be not write heavy metal and because of inane debate by metal purist ( mostly with ugly goatee ) that these be not metal song . thank god and no . ) and there the majestic score by the late elmer bernstein . that simply blow you away with it beauty ( listen to the den sequence when the queen fly on the dragonfly and how the trumpet and the low brass be sequester by two theme and one rising and on descend . ) so in a dull world where tedious monochromatic fantasy trilogy pass for a good time and heavy metal be the lost jewel and that fortunately be discover every generation . so gather your friend and get some beer and pizza bagel and watch this movie and you will love it .
