PFor Immediate Release
May 2, 2007

MAKERS OF GET THRASHED AND ZETRO SOUZA ON HAND
FOR L.A. SCREENING AT SILVER LAKE FILM FESTIVAL


Director Rick Ernst and Associate Producer Rat Skates will attend the West Coast premiere of Get Thrashed: The Story Of Thrash Metal at the Silver Lake Film Festival in Los Angeles on Saturday, May 5.

After the screening, there will be a question and answer session with Ernst, Skates, as well as former Exodus vocalist Zetro Souza. Members and ex- members of Anthrax, Testament, Dark Angel and other influential thrash artists are scheduled to attend the West Coast Premiere.

"I'm so excited to be a part of Get Thrashed,” said former Exodus vocalist Zetro Souza. “There’s finally a film that makes you feel a part of that magic time. The LA screening is going to be a blast. I’m psyched to see the film, interact with the fans and catch up with old friends."

Due to the increasing buzz about the film, and considering that Los Angeles is one of the cities that played a big role in the birth of thrash, the film has been moved to a larger room in the Los Feliz 3 Theatre.

"I’m very proud of our work on this movie," said associate producer Rat Skates. "Just like the bands in this film believed in their music and the genre they created, Rick and I had a similar belief and that die-hard attitude in doing something so involved like Get Thrashed. After all of the insanely difficult hurdles that had to be jumped to make this film happen, it makes it that much cooler to see the final product. Our movement was the most significant building block in what metal is today. This is definitely an essential learning tool for the new school. It's a step back in time to look at the overall landscape of the scene we created.”

Skates, founding drummer of '80s thrash band Overkill, has been involved in the filmmaking industry with his own company Kundrat Productions since 1999, producing a wide variety of projects from corporate advertising and television commercials to the performing arts. His recent projects include Get Thrashed (Associate Producer) and Producer of the newly released autobiographical documentary Born In The Basement.

Get Thrashed: The Story of Thrash Metal recently took home awards for "Best Documentary" and "Best Soundtrack" at the Backseat Film Festival in Philadelphia.

The film will screen on Saturday night, May 5th, at 11:45 pm at the Los Feliz 3 Theatre located at 1822 North Vermont Avenue, LA, CA 90027. Tickets are $11.00 and can be purchased online at www.silverlakefilmfestival.org or by calling 1-800-838-3006.

This movie sounds like it will be SO much fun. Is it ever going to get a wide release, or is it only doing the film festival circuit before it goes to DVD? I have a feeling this will blow "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey" out of the water!

just because they do not play it, does not mean they are not thrash fans.

I'm starting to get that feeling!!

Seriously, for a while Blabbermouth ran updates on the progress of this movie seemingly twice a day. Then suddenly, nothing has been posted about it for a while now. The last I had heard was that it was due on DVD in May, now we're in June and there's still no info!! Mad

Looks like "Get Thrashed" finally has a DVD release date... 'bout frickin' TIME!!!

'Get Thrashed: The Story Of Thrash Metal' DVD Release Date Announced - July 10, 2008

Lightyear Entertainment will release of the award-winning and critically acclaimed music documentary "Get Thrashed: The Story of Thrash Metal" on September 16, 2008. The film covers the evolution, cultural impact, and musical influence of thrash metal , an extreme form of heavy metal which burst on to the scene in the early-to-mid-1980s. Told first-hand by members of bands such as METALLICA, MEGADETH, SLAYER and ANTHRAX, as well as using raw, original show footage, writer/director Rick Ernst (MTV, VH1) demonstrates how and why many of these bands emerged from playing local parties and small clubs to headlining major arenas and stadiums. The film is a roller coaster ride of extreme music and personalities, starting with the most famous thrash metal pioneers METALLICA and highlighting other genre defining bands like MEGADETH, SLAYER, EXODUS and more. The documentary features interviews with over 50 artists, including past and current members of METALLICA, MEGADETH, ANTHRAX, SLAYER, PANTERA, EXODUS, LAMB OF GOD, TESTAMENT, SHADOWS FALL, IN FLAMES, KREATOR, DESTRUCTION, HATEBREED and many more. The artists discuss the groundbreaking music of the thrash metal scene, the culture surrounding it and includes raw, live concert footage depicting mosh pits, stage diving, head-banging, partying and the over-the-top antics that went along with the thrash metal movement. The movie breaks down how the thrash metal scene grew from its DIY beginnings in Los Angeles and San Francisco, then reached the East Coast, conquered Europe, and even took root in countries like Brazil and Australia. "Get Thrashed" highlights the similarities and differences in each region while illustrating how the seeds that were planted by thrash metal gave rise to the modern day breed of extreme heavy metal and hard rock. The film features wall-to-wall music from METALLICA, MEGADETH, PANTERA, SLAYER, ANTHRAX, EXODUS, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES and many more, and contains over 90 minutes of bonus footage, featuring thrash scenes and bands from around the world. The DVD offers more than three hours of content, including director's commentary by Rick Ernst and associate producer Rat Skates (ex-OVERKILL drummer), plus liner notes from legendary EXODUS guitarist Gary Holt.
