Computer Files, Websites
Oslo, 1987: seventeen-year-old Øystein Aarseth (Rory Culkin) is determined to escape his idyllic Scandinavian life and create "True Norwegian black metal" with his band, MAYHEM. Under the pseudonym Euronymous, he's joined by his band-mates Hellhammer, Necrobutcher and a Swedish misfit known as Dead. Revelling in his newfound notoriety and eager to take things a step further, Aarseth opens a record store which becomes a sanctuary for partying and loud music. When a shy geek who calls himself Varg enters his the picture, a power struggle ensues and vandalism, arson and murder consumes their lives. Official Selection at the **Sundance Film Festival**. Nominated for Best Film at the **Sitges - Catalonian International Film Festival**. "*Lords of Chaos provokes both awe and repulsion, but not necessarily admiration for a musical form and subculture unwaveringly devoted to literalism, no matter how extreme.*" - Justin Lowe, **Hollywood Reporter**
