It's not a movie - it's an EXPERIENCE
I don't think I was old enough to see a rated R movie when Heavy Metal was first released, but I can sure remember having to buy the cassette over and over and over because I would play it until it was stretched and worn beyond use. Once it was released on VHS, I did the same thing to THAT tape - and had to buy it several times. FINALLY, I have both the movie and the soundtrack on disk, and I couldn't be happier. This movie hasn't aged a day since its release. Yes, there are slightly hokey moments - mostly in the wrap-around story - but overall, this is a highly absorbing and entertaining collection of animated short stories reflective of the publication that inspired it. Most of the artwork is simply spectacular, and you quickly find yourself so engaged, you don't ever stop to think about the fact that it is animated and not real. A KICKIN' soundtrack featuring some of the greatest rockers of all-time makes it all the more absorbing and dynamic. Heavy Metal is not just an animated flick with a great soundtrack. It's a journey. It's an experience in the quiet, strange places we rarely visit in our own minds. Beautiful and horrifying. Shocking and compelling. It's like a stream-of-consciousness download of one's subconscious mind, laid right out in plain view on film for all to see.Read full review

Beware The EVIL That Is "Loc Nar" HEAVY METAL Delivers!
Based on the fantastical illustrated magazine Heavy Metal producer Ivan Reitman enlists the world s greatest comic book artists to create the otherworldly tale of a glowing green orb from outer space that spreads destruction throughout the galaxy. Only when encountered by its one true enemy - to whom it is inexplicably drawn - will goodness prevail throughout the universe. Lavishly drawn vignettes of the orb s dark victories include the character voices of John Candy and Harold Ramis plus a pounding soundtrack by Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, Cheap Trick, Devol Donald Fagen, Don Felder, Grand Funk Railroad, Sammy Hagar, Journey, Nazareth, Stevie Nicks, Riggs and Trust. Highly imaginative and full of surprising special effects Heavy Metal set the standard for alternative contemporary animation. An intoxicating experience not to be missed.Read full review

TAKE A RIDE...ON HEAVY METAL!
When Heavy Metal was released in theaters in 1981, I was 11 years old (do the math on how old I am now). Of course, far too young to see an R rated movie-not something my parents would've taken me to see. But I remember radio stations played songs from the soundtrack a lot, particularly Sammy Hagar's "Heavy Metal" and Don Felder's "Heavy Metal (Takin' A Ride)." Anyway, the fact that it was advertised as animated, sci-fi/fantasy/horror/comedy and sex with a rockin' soundtrack-well, I was determined to see this movie, one way or another. Fast forward a few years to my freshman year of college, and our campus sci-fi club advertised a screening of Heavy Metal in our campus theater-tickets sold out big time, and luckily, I got one of them! Boy, I was blown away! Everything I expected, and more! It was pretty revolutionary filmmaking, to say the least. Well, now I finally have it on DVD, and the soundtrack as well on CD. Now that all those legal problems which prevented its release on video are settled, sit back, relax, and WON'T YOU TAKE A RIDE...ON HEAVY METAL!Read full review

Heavy "Medal"
This is one of those movies you see when you're young that just blows you away and leaves a lasting impression. Star Wars, Porky's, and The Bad News Bears come to mind as well. I was 16 when it came out so I was just about the perfect age. It had a little bit of everything...sci-fi fantasies, cool rock music and heavy metal, hot babes getting naked, crazy looking aliens, warriors, and some really cool animation, especially for it's time. With a little bit of comedy thrown in also. The music was every bit as exciting as the movie. In fact, it really made the movie as good as it was. The two title tracks, one by Sammy Hagar and the other by Don Felder are two of my all-time favorite songs. I actually got the sound track before the movie, just so I could have those songs. The rest of them are great too. A lot of famous artists and really good songs on that sound track. I was really happy to find that this movie was available on DVD and glad that it will be part of my collection. I just watched it for only the 3rd time now and enjoyed it just as much at 44 as I did when I was 16.Read full review

Heavy Metal DVD
I had a VHS copy that I used until it wouldn't play any more... So I decided to see if there was a DVD out there some where... I went to(best buy, Circuit City and Good guys) you know all the places that sell DVD's and nobody had a copy in that format... So a friend of mine said why not try ebay? I did and with in minutes I found what I was looking for and at a great price... The copy I recieved is in excellent condition and has great sound guality... Now I can watch my (Heavy metal) DVD when ever I want...
