Rock & Rule (1983)
7/10
Better defined plot than Heavy Metal, never saw either uncut though.
4 November 2009
Yes, I have seen both this movie and the other animation movie "Heavy Metal", but I have never seen either uncut. So I can not really say which I like more. I liked this one because the story was a bit easier to follow, but that could be because "Heavy Metal" is so cut up on the television cut that at times some of the stories are skipping from scene to a completely different scene. Then again "Rock and Rule" seems a bit to tame compared to "Heavy Metal", but once again that could be because the more graphic scenes were cut from the version of the film I saw. The story in this one has this sort of aging rocker using rock and roll to basically summon a demon that delights in killing and such. He does the summoning by using a girl singer that he basically kidnaps. About all there is to it, but it works well. The music as was the case in "Heavy Metal" was very good and rocked suffice to say. One day I wish to see both of these films uncut so then I can give a more accurate review to both and perhaps decide which if any is superior to the other.
