Based On Truth, Lies, & What Actually Happened.
The title says it all. I find when people say this didn’t happen this way or that way, this part isn’t true, etc I like to think “how would you know”? The director (Jonas Åkerlund) of the film ran in the same circles at the time. He was in black/viking metal band called Bathory from 1983-1984 era. He knew these guys. So if anyone knows most of what actually happened, Jonas is the guy. Plus, I find if Varg didn’t like it & says it’s untrue then it’s no doubt the opposite .

I was not expecting to like this movie as much as I did. I didn’t really know what to expect, to a great extent. I was shocked at how well it was put together. LOC is a very engaging, if compelling film about a bunch of true Norwegian black metal guys who founded the band Mayham, fanatics who cause it too, in little old Oslo. It’s very well acted with some disturbing themes. One involving a candid suicide, another involving a random bloody murder, & another horrific murder of betrayal. LOC kills on all levels. Confrontingly violent, well scripted, & very well acted. Jack Kilmer’s (Dead) short lived role, is hauntingly brilliant! Rory Culkin’s (Oystein) performance is shockingly impressive. And the unhinged Varg, played superbly by Emory Cohen. His acting stuck with me. There were some powerful moments that truly unnerved me. He’s a great acting force to be reckoned with. This is an important film with a so tragic, & violent ending. In ill respect, the film is very funny too, & the music is of course well suited.

Overall, it’s a well-acted, directed & produced film, & a faithful depiction of the events that transpired. I highly recommend it.Read More
