The 50 most evil songs ever

These 50 tracks – featuring the likes of Rammstein, Slipknot, Mayhem, Slayer and AC/DC – are pretty damn nasty.

November 24, 2020Words:Paul Brannigan, James Hickie, Sam Law, Nick Ruskell, Dan Slessor, Paul Travers, Ian Winwood, Simon YoungOriginally published:In an April 2017 issue of Kerrang! magazine

From serial killers to Satan, we pulled out the ouija board and summoned the 50 most evil songs of all time. Spoiler alert: this gets incrediblygrim…

Mötley CrüeShout At The Devil

The title-track from Crüe’s breakthrough second album caused the kind of controversy that would define the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band. Penned by bassist Nikki Sixx, its lyrical preoccupation with the horned one, coupled with the LA bad boys’ burgeoning mainstream success, meant Christian groups were up in arms. Despite their protestations, the most evil thing about this song was the misguided re-reworking on 1997’s sinfully bad Generation Swine album.

WatainDevil’s Blood

Nothing less than an open hymn to the Devil himself and doing his dirtiest deeds, Devil’s Blood boils with the fanatical delight of those caught in religious fervour. The sheer force of nature of the music is staggering, but it is nothing next to Erik Danielsson’s rabid, demonic vocals as he revels in Luciferian power and living, ‘In the glorious light of the five point star.’ Truly diabolic.

PossessedThe Exorcist

When The Exorcist hit cinemas in the early ’70s, reports of audience members vomiting and losing consciousness circulated. So it’s only right that a song of the same name evokes teeth-chattering terror in those exposed to it. Written from the point of view of the possessed individual, and welded to breakneck thrashing, it was a formative track in the soon-to-be-born death metal genre. Unfortunately, things don’t end so well for the song’s protagonist.

Sonic Youth (featuring Lydia Lunch)Death Valley ’69

The 1980s were the age of the music video, a time of glossy movie-budget promo blockbusters from the likes of Michael Jackson and Prince. Not so for Sonic Youth. As a standalone song, Death Valley ’69 is intriguingly ambiguous, a thing of darkness in which the narrator may or may not have murdered his girlfriend. In the accompanying video clip, never to be played on primetime MTV, the song’s inherent violence is given full expression in a series of explicit images of lifeless bodies covered in gore. A thrillingly subversive dose of yuk.

GhostRitual

If the Devil were real would he be banging his horned head to the brutal death metal of Deicide or sipping a cocktail and twirling an exquisite mustachio to the altogether slicker sounds of Ghost? On first listen this is just one beautiful wash of melodies, but that only makes the lyrics underneath all the more disturbing. ‘This chapel of ritual smells of dead human sacrifices,’ croons Papa Emeritus. The stench of decay has never been sweeter.

The BeatlesHelter Skelter

In August 1969, homicidal cult-leader Charles Manson (you’ll hear that name plenty down this list…) told his followers, known as ‘The Family’, “Now is the time for Helter Skelter,” an assertion that heralded the most infamous mass murders – the Tate-LaBianca murders – in American history. He had become obsessed with The Beatles’ White Album, and with Helter Skelter in particular, the lyrics of which he misinterpreted in bonkers and ultimately homicidal ways.

Aphrodite’s ChildThe Four Horsemen

Greek proggers Aphrodite’s Child – featuring crooner Demis Roussos and Blade Runner soundtrack genius Vangelis – had big ideas for their 666 album: the apocalypse itself. This account of The Four Horsemen’s arrival is amazing, but it could have been improved if surrealist artist Salvador Dalí had gotten his way with the album’s release. He wanted to declare martial law in Barcelona, where swans stuffed with dynamite would be unleashed, before elephants and “Archbishops carrying umbrellas” bombarded the city’s cathedral from the air. Oddly, this didn’t come to pass.

Electric WizardWe Hate You

Electric Wizard’s Dopethrone album bears the striking slogan ‘Legalise drugs and murder’. The Dorset doom misanthropes may have been grouped with the groovy vibes of the stoner rock scene, but lines like ‘So I’ll take my father’s gun and I’ll walk down to the street / I’ll have my vengeance now with everyone I meet’ were a long way away from songs about shagging and cars. It’s a truly nasty sentiment, but as an indiscriminate spray of bile against everyone, this is untouchable.

The Devil’s BloodThe Anti-Kosmik Magick

(The Time Of No Time Evermore, 2009)

“They warned me Satan would be attractive,” quoth Ned Flanders upon being offered legal marijuana. Indeed, at first listen, Dutch diabolists The Devil’s Blood sound like the coolest ’70s-revival band you’ve ever heard. But, covered in blood, treating gigs as rituals and with heavy occult lyrics, The Anti-Kosmik Magick finds them tricking you into loving Lucifer without realising it. Seductive, rather than aggressive, this is temptation and sin presented in all its decadent glory.

AC/DCNight Prowler

On the evening of March 17, 1985, 25-year-old Texan drifter Richard Ramirez broke into the California homes of Tsai-Lian Yu and Dayle Okazaki and murdered both women. Dayle’s roommate Maria Hernandez was also shot in the face by Ramirez, but survived, and provided police with a pen portrait of a young man wearing an AC/DC baseball cap. It would be a further five months, however, before Ramirez, dubbed the ‘Night Stalker’, was apprehended, bringing to an end a 14-month reign of terror in the Golden State during which a total of 13 people were murdered and 11 more sexually assaulted in their own homes.

Ramirez’s childhood friend Ray Garcia subsequently told the authorities that the killer was obsessed by AC/DC, and specifically the creepy, chilling, voyeuristic closing track on the band’s 1979 Highway To Hell album, Night Prowler, leading to sensationalist media headlines such as “‘AC/DC Music Made Me Kill At 16’, Night Stalker Admits.” The Australian band were understandably horrified at the implication, with vocalist Brian Johnson (who joined the band after the song’s recording) telling VH1 television, “It sickens you to have anything to do with that kind of thing.” In the same Behind The Music special, AC/DC guitarist Malcolm Young claimed that Night Prowler is actually about “things you used to do when you are a kid, like sneaking into a girlfriend’s bedroom when her parents were asleep”, but lyrics such as ‘No-one’s gonna warn you / And no-one’s gonna yell attack / And you don’t feel the steel / Till it’s hangin’ out your back’ rather undermined the idea that this was merely a paean to adolescent horniness.

In court, Ramirez played up to his monstrous image, greeting the courtroom with the words “Hail Satan” and telling the judge, “I am beyond good and evil. I will be avenged. Lucifer dwells in us all.” After a four-year trial, Ramirez received 19 death sentences for his crimes, a punishment he shrugged off with the words, “Big deal… I’ll see you in Disneyland.” AC/DC naturally distanced themselves completely from the serial killer, but shaking off the association with what is undoubtedly their darkest, nastiest song would prove impossible.

HellhammerTriumph Of Death

Hellhammer mainman Tom G. Warrior has described his childhood in nightmarish terms. Living in a rural Swiss village with an unfit mother who was frequently absent smuggling jewellery, he started playing music to get away from it all. But imagine if this near-10 minute dirge of funereal guitar was what you did to escape. Every negative human emotion is vomited up in Tom’s strangled vocals, and when a couple of years later Tom asked the lyrical question of ‘Are you morbid?’, his answer was already a horrifying ‘yes’.

DissectionNight’s Blood

When thinking of ‘evil’ the words ‘Satan’ and ‘murder’ come quickly to mind. Put those two together and you stumble into territory Dissection inhabited in the mid-’90s, with band leader Jon Nödtveidt and an accomplice jailed for murdering a man who had allegedly expressed an interest in Satanism. Night’s Blood was given its unholy birth two years prior to that incident, and it’s hard not to feel unsettled by the gleeful bloodlust haunting it.

BehemothChristians To The Lions

Having released seminal albums titled Satanica and The Satanist, you can be fairly sure that everything Behemoth do is pretty damn evil, and mainman Nergal’s abuse of the Bible has landed him in Polish courts on more than one occasion. That being the case, it’s unlikely that this ditty went down overly well with churchgoers. Backed up with the band’s inimitable blackened death savagery, Nergal makes it clear which side of the God/Satan divide he falls on, viciously celebrating the death of the former and rise of the latter.

DarkthroneIn The Shadow Of The Horns

A Blaze In The Northern Sky marked a dark watershed for the black metal genre. Eerily pre-emptive of the spree of church-burnings that would go on to hallmark the genre it might’ve been. But Darkthrone’s second LP was, in actuality, fixated on the primal evils of the past. Its howling second track would prove definitive. Seven minutes of defiant lo-fi production, frostbitten purpose and blunt-force simplicity, In The Shadow Of The Horns still sounds like “abyssic hate” incarnate.

Cradle Of FilthDeath Magick For Adepts

Always ones for adding theatrics to their music, here Dani Filth paints a picture of a Sodom and Gomorrah scenario with no small amount of skill. But how to really bring out the hellish chaos erupting all around? You get one of Hell’s stewards to lend their terrifying voice to the track. That is to say, Hellraiser actor Doug Bradley, whose performance makes you worried to look out your window, lest you see Hell emptying itself onto the lawn.

Guns N’ RosesLook At Your Game, Girl

(The Spaghetti Incident?, 1993)

There aren’t many songs that have been released in order to help pay for the legal defence costs of its author who is facing a multiple murder rap. Originally written in 1967 and released on the album Lie: The Love And Terror Cult, Look At Your Game, Girl is the work of Charles Manson. Twenty-three years after its original 1970 release, the always provocative Guns N’ Roses placed the song as a hidden track on their covers album The Spaghetti Incident?. “People are trying to paint me like I worship Charles Manson,” said Axl Rose in 1994, “but it’s exactly the opposite of that.”

AkercockeOf Menstrual Blood And Semen

‘Blast For Satan’ ran the slogan on Akercocke’s shirts. It was a statement that summed up the intensity of both their music and their allegiance to Him downstairs. With their Savile Row suits and mysterious manner, they gave the air of men who actually dabbled in the black arts, something reinforced by their instruction to ‘drink of the chalice of ecstasy’ here. This furious concoction is as intense as metal gets, while also revelling in the decadence of the band’s beliefs.

BathoryCall From The Grave

Across their first trilogy of albums, Sweden’s Bathory redefined just how evil metal could sound. Crudely welding the darkness of Black Sabbath to the roar of Motörhead, the sound mainman Quorthon came up with could freeze blood, and nowhere more so than on Call From The Grave. With all the atmosphere of a freshly-dug burial site at midnight, the diabolic, two-chord riff and Quorthon’s demented vocals make this a haunting paean to all things evil and hellish.

DeicideOnce Upon The Cross

As you would expect from a man who once branded an inverted cross into his forehead, Deicide’s Glen Benton has no problem with blasphemy. Here, he mocks Jesus Christ’s struggle as he dies on the cross, which tied in really well with album Once Upon The Cross’ original artwork, which features Jesus with his insides on the outside. Oddly, this was considered too salty for the public.

Jimmy PageLucifer Rising

So obsessed was Jimmy Page with occultist and ‘Wickedest Man In The World’ Aleister Crowley that he bought the Scottish residence, Boleskine House, where the magician had attempted (and failed) to perform a six-month long magic ritual. The Zeppelin guitarist was therefore the perfect choice to soundtrack Lucifer Rising, a Crowley-inspired film by occult director Kenneth Anger. When after years, Jimmy’s contribution was still incomplete, he was acrimoniously removed from the project. Regardless, this bizarre music remains the most unsettling the man has ever created.

Big BlackJordan, Minnesota

Tiny Midwestern town Jordan, Minnesota entered the national consciousness in the U.S. in the mid-’80s when a number of school children claimed to have been ritually abused and to have witnessed multiple murders perpetrated by more than 20 townsfolk. The hysterical media coverage prompted Big Black’s Steve Albini to write this disturbing, pitch-black indictment of small-town corruption and perversion, complete with heavy breathing and lyrics such as, ‘This is Jordan, we do what we like.’ Ultimately, the accusations were dismissed as pure fabrication, but the song remains a horrifying and sickening dissection of humanity’s darkest impulses.

Robert JohnsonCross Road Blues

Legend has it that Cross Road Blues is about a highway intersection in the city of Rosedale, where Robert Johnson sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for his musical talent. While this classic song’s lyrics make no mention of this shady Faustian pact, the song – most likely about making the choice between good and evil – fuelled the myth of the Delta blues legend, who made references to the Devil during many of his songs. Plot twist: Robert died under mysterious circumstances aged just 27 years old.

Alkaline TrioThis Could Be Love

While many other popular punk bands of the time were singing songs about farting and penises, the always cut-above Alkaline Trio cast their gaze on darker matters. This Could Be Love is a tale of murder, the twist in which lies in the fact that it is told from the victim’s point of view. It’s grizzly stuff, too, with soiled beds, scenes of torture, delirious joy at acts of violence and the arresting image of a crazed lover washing blood from her hands in the waters of Lake Michigan. As audio-nasties go, this is a superior offering.

CarcassCadaveric Incubator Of Endoparasites

Dying sucks, but Carcass have done a bang-up job of making you hope to be vaporised at your moment of death by luridly detailing the process of decomposition. It’s hard to compute just how unsettling the Liverpudlian’s lyrics were, and it’s safe to presume that someone with delicate sensibilities raised on a diet of Madonna could well be revisited by the contents of their stomach after exposure to this belch of aural horror.

Nine Inch NailsPiggy

Despite appearing on The Downward Spiral, an album chronicling the destruction of man, Piggy isn’t necessarily evil in and of itself. It’s the context in which the song was created that makes it truly unsettling.

In 1992, Trent Reznor scrapped his original plan to record the follow-up to Nine Inch Nails’ debut Pretty Hate Machine in New Orleans, decamping instead to 10050 Cielo Drive in Los Angeles’ Benedict Canyon. It was here in 1969 that actress Sharon Tate (the pregnant wife of director Roman Polanski) and four others were brutally murdered by the Charles Manson ‘family’. Although Trent suggests he only discovered the address’ grisly history after he’d decided to record there – claiming it was chosen for the suitability of the space – he subsequently read up on the incident, suggesting ‘The Tate House’ “didn’t feel terrifying as much as sad.” Despite the sense of melancholy, Trent would use it to record 1992’s Broken EP, The Downward Spiral and Marilyn Manson’s debut album, Portrait Of An American Family, which Trent produced.

The song’s title has been the subject of speculation. Former live guitarist Richard Patrick, who would later form the band Filter, has suggested he was once given the nickname ‘Piggy’, while The Beatles’ song Piggies was said to have had considerable influence on Charles Manson. Despite Trent redubbing the address ‘Le Pig’, a reference to the word that was written in blood on the front door by the murderers – and The Downward Spiral also featuring a song called March Of The Pigs – Trent denies either was directly related to what had taken place at the site of their makeshift studio.

In a sobering postscript, Trent ended up meeting Sharon Tate’s sister. She asked him about whether he thought he was exploiting her sister’s death – an encounter Trent admits caused him to breakdown, having suddenly seen things from her perspective.

Cannibal CorpseFrantic Disembowelment

No-one pens gleeful murder and mayhem anti-anthems like Cannibal Corpse, and those taking the time to read the lyric sheet often wish they hadn’t eaten beforehand. Famously stirring up controversy with both their lyrics and artwork in the late-’80s and early-’90s, CC have never once modulated their approach to making horrifying music, and Frantic Disembowelment has to stand as the pinnacle of their nastiness. What’s it about? The title makes it pretty clear, and nowhere will you find a more graphic description of innards becoming ‘outtards’.

Jane’s AddictionTed, Just Admit It

The track opens with a quote from American serial killer Ted Bundy (a man who kept severed heads as trophies), recorded shortly before his 1989 execution and wrapped up in off-kilter jazzy beats. “There’s gonna be people turning up in canyons, there are gonna be people being shot in Salt Lake City. Because the police there aren’t willing to accept, what I think they know. And they know I didn’t do these things,” he claims. The rest of it is hardly easy listening with frontman Perry Farrellintoning ‘Sex is violent’ over and over again like a man possessed.

SlipknotIowa

How do you end one of the most bleak albums in history? By recording a 15-minute doom jam that hints at necrophilia. Corey Taylor – who describes the Iowa album as the “darkest fucking period” of his life – explores the mind of a man who finds himself alone with a corpse: ‘You are mine / You will always be mine / I can tear you apart / I can recombine you.’ And to really get into that fucked-up mindset, he sang naked and cut himself with broken glass. The screams you hear on the song are quite real.

BlasphemyRitual

There are many rumours about Canada’s Blasphemy, none greater than the ones concerning their activities in Alberta’s Ross Bay cemetery. A place with a long history of satanic goings on, legend has it that the band carried out satanic rituals, desecrations and headstone theft on the site (supposedly the stone was returned after guitarist Black Priest Of The 7 Satanic Blood Rituals suffered demonic attacks). It would certainly explain Ritual’s suffocating darkness.

AbruptumObscuritatem Advoco Amplecetere Me Part 1

Euronymous from Mayhem once described Sweden’s Abruptum as “the audial essence of pure black evil”. As 20-ish minutes of raw, evil noise rather than a song, Obscuritatem… is certainly dark. Especially considering that the screaming sounds you hear are apparently band members IT and Evil violently torturing one another. True or not, this is diabolic stuff.

Alice CooperI Love The Dead

In his time, Alice Cooper caused outrage with the theatrics of his live show and songs like this tender track about stiffs. ‘I love the dead before they rise / No farewells, no goodbyes / I never even knew your now-rotting face,’ he crooned, prompting calls for a UK tour to be banned. MP Leo Abse accused the singer of “peddling the culture of the concentration camp”, adding, “Pop is one thing, anthems of necrophilia are quite another.”

Mercyful FateMelissa

The character of Melissa was a witch who was burned at the stake. She appeared a number of times throughout Mercyful Fate’s career, but here, on the metallers’ debut, it was to inspire her lover to seek out satanic revenge. The initial inspiration for the song came from a skull that frontman King Diamond (more on him soon) ‘acquired’ from a medical school. It had suffered a brutal injury, and the name Melissa came to the singer as he stared at it. Melissa also formed part of the stage set until she was stolen at a gig.

Morbid AngelBleed For The Devil

If that title doesn’t tell you what side death metal legends Morbid Angel’s bread was buttered, how about the photo in the Altars Of Madness album sleeve of guitar wizard Trey Azagthoth shredding while bleeding profusely, looking as though he’s playing for the Great Horned One himself. Or you could just listen to the demented musical maze with lyrics literally attempting to summon Lucifer, and realise that whatever Morbid Angel were doing in the studio, they did not learn it at Sunday school.

Ozzy OsbourneMr Crowley

When Ozzy Osbourne was fired from Black Sabbath in 1979, many wondered whether he’d be able to muster the same dark magic again. Just a year later, people got their answer in the form of debut solo album Blizzard Of Ozz. Mr Crowley, its second single, refers to legendary occultist Aleister Crowley, who founded the religion of Thelema and considered himself a prophet. Dramatic stuff; so it’s a good thing it’s got a grandiose organ intro – and guitarist Randy Rhoads on monumental form.

MisfitsMommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?

We’d love to hear Freud’s take on Glenn Danzig’s colourful relationship with his mother. Before the diminutive behemoth’s maternally-titled solo smash he penned this ditty for the Misfits about a student driven to homicidal mania by his playground tormentors. But only if ‘Mommy’ says he’s allowed, obviously. Captured raw, the serrated tape-deck live recording only adds to the unhinged bloodlust. And packed like a meat locker with lurid promises to ‘rip the veins from human necks’ we can’t see how Glenn’s old lady could’ve possibly refused…

CovenSatanic Mass

Released in 1969, the same year U.S. occultist Anton LaVey published The Satanic Bible, Coven’s Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls album was the perfect soundtrack to the hippie movement taking a step down the left-hand path. Following nine tracks of Satan-themed psych, it closes with this, an actual satanic mass, conducted by the band. Even if you think it’s hokum, it’s hard to get to the end without feeling weird.

VenomBlack Metal

These days somewhat overlooked, more than any other band Newcastle upon Tyne’s Venom were the chief progenitors of metal’s most bloodthirsty subgenre, thrash metal. Couplets such as ‘Freaking so wild / Nobody’s mild’ may suggest the aid of a rhyming dictionary, but either way Black Metal would prove to be wildly influential on a range of young American musicians with a taste for the extreme. The track has been covered by no fewer than 11 different bands, and is loved by musicians as disparate as Dave Grohl and Kerry King.

Judas PriestBetter By You, Better Than Me

Can a cover of a bouncy ’60s pop song really be evil? According to a couple of grieving parents and their lawyers it can, and in 1990 Rob Halford and the boys were hauled into court over it. With hidden, subliminal messages allegedly buried in the song, which supposedly inspired two fans to shoot themselves, the trial itself was quickly sensationalised by the media. Though the charges were ultimately dismissed, the judge insisted there were such messages on there, though not necessarily powerful enough to incite suicidal actions. Stealth evil, maybe?

Celtic FrostProcreation (Of The Wicked)

Easily one of the most evil bands of their time – and essential to the evolution of extreme metal – Celtic Frost could conjure images of the Devil with a single chord. However, never did they sound more monstrous than on this brutish tune. Lurching along on a hulking riff and with twisted lyrics that scare Christians and excite all those who reject religion (‘If God raised the abyss, you’d procreate your own / Abolism of death is abolism of life’), this is music gloriously devoid of anything that could be considered ‘good’. Sepultura’s take on the track also stands amongst the best metal covers ever.

Killing JokeExorcism

This is a piece of ritualistic industrial-metal primal force that was recorded in the Great Pyramid Of Giza after Killing Joke allegedly bribed the Egyptian Minister For Antiquities for access. “Our engineer fell asleep in the King’s Chamber,” frontman Jaz Coleman told Kerrang! of the sessions. “He suddenly had some vision, sprang up, banged his head and ran out screaming. After this he said he’d never go back in again. He said there were thousands of alien eyes staring at him, and after that he had a stroke. It affected him, the place…”

King DiamondThe Family Ghost

King Diamond is no stranger to strangeness.

“I’ve had a ton of supernatural experiences. I feel like I brought something back with me from the operation [a triple heart bypass in which he nearly died] but I was having supernatural experiences long before that,” he says.

Many of these real-life experiences have been channelled into his music, both with Mercyful Fate and his self-named outfit. The Family Ghost might just be the only song to have incorporated an element of the supernatural into its very recording, however.

The song is a crucial part of King Diamond’s classic horror concept album, Abigail. The story for the album, which involves murder, possession and dark family secrets, came to King in a dream on a suitably stormy night.

“I woke up during a thunderstorm in my haunted apartment in Copenhagen and I had this story in my head. It was also influenced by my own family history. My mom told me how she was left on someone’s doorstep and she later found out she was the child of a professor’s son. He got my grandmother pregnant and she was sent away to have this child. That was all sort of wound into this story,” the singer explains.

On The Family Ghost, protagonist Jonathan La’Fey is warned by the ghost of his ancestor that his wife is carrying the vengeful spirit of the stillborn Abigail and that he must kill her in order to stop the rebirth.

Even spookier than the story is an unexpected and unexplained addition to the recording that may or may not have originated from somewhere beyond the grave.

“There’s a vocal part on The Family Ghost that I never recorded,” explains King. “It’s a part that goes, (adopts bestial growl) ‘Ohhhh damn,’ and we couldn’t find it on any of the tracks anywhere. I have no clue what it was, but it’s certainly not the only weird or even seemingly impossible thing to happen to us.”

Sunn O)))Báthory Erzsébet

What could be more evil than a song jointly inspired by black metal progenitors Bathory and the 16th century serial killer Elizabeth Báthory – who reputedly bathed in the blood of virgins – from whom they took their name? Perhaps one that also consisted of 16 minutes of tortuous drone and bleak lyrics like, ‘Decompose forever, aware and unholy, encased in marble and honey from the swarm.’ Oh, and legend has it the band locked claustrophobic guest vocalist Malefic from occult metal act Xasthur in a casket to make his performance more anguished.

DanzigMother

‘Mother…’ Don’t warble it, we dare you. Glenn Danzig’s post-Misfits mega-hit has gained such ubiquity, it’s easy to overlook its evil underpinnings. Peel away a million hoarse-throated rock club sing-alongs, however, and it’s still devilishly apparent. A tongue-in-cheek cautionary tale targeted squarely at Tipper Gore, the (parental advisory committee) PMRC and 1988’s other moral crusaders, its promise of a scene ‘not about to see your light’ pierced the mainstream like a sacrificial dagger. Chuck in the MTV-banned music video (animal sacrifice and inverted-crosses smeared bloodily onto nubile torsos = bad press, apparently) and we’ve got probably the most subversive song of its era.

SlayerAngel Of Death

Given that their entire oeuvre revolves around war, murder and general unspeakable wickedness, finding evil Slayer songs is hardly difficult: in fact, it’d be significantly more of a challenge to identify songs by the LA thrash metal pioneers that aren’t rooted in despicable, debased acts of inhumanity. That said, while the likes of Dead Skin Mask (based on the exploits of Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein), Jihad (‘Fuck your God!’) and Necrophiliac (erm…) are gruesome and terrifying in equal measure, it’s the notorious opening track of the masterfully malevolent Reign In Blood album which will forever remain the Californian band’s most noxious and black-hearted artistic statement.

Perhaps the most chilling aspect of Jeff Hanneman’s lyrics detailing Nazi physician Josef Mengele’s abhorrent experiments on patients at the Auschwitz concentration camp (‘Burning flesh drips away / Test of heat burns your skin / Your mind starts to boil / Frigid cold, cracks your limbs / How long can you last in this frozen water burial?’) is the fact that they’re so clinical, unemotional and detached, leading to accusations that the band were glorifying the horrors. The controversy actually led to Columbia Records, the distributors for producer Rick Rubin’s Def Jam label, to insist that the track be removed from the album, a demand which both the band and their label boss flatly refused. Ultimately, the label washed their hands of the release, leading Rick to take it to Geffen Records instead.

Jeff always denied accusations that the song exhibited Nazi sympathies, calling it “a history lesson”. “There’s nothing I put in the lyrics that says necessarily he was a bad man, because to me – well, isn’t that obvious?” he stated, not unreasonably. His guitar partner Kerry King was even more brusque, saying, “Read the lyrics and tell me what’s offensive about it?” The band’s lack of repentance is understandable, but it’d be a dead soul indeed who can listen without flinching at the visceral horror.

Diamond HeadAm I Evil?

‘My mother was a witch,’ barked Diamond Head frontman Sean Harris in 1980, lighting a fire under the fledgeling NWOBHM genre, ‘She was burned alive!’ Fusing the occult themes of Black Sabbath to the ragged energy of early punk, the Midlands metallers laid a proto-thrash template that’d be picked up by Metallica (who famously covered the song as a B-side for Creeping Death), Megadeth and Slayer. For all those bands’ stadium-packing pedigree, though, there’s still something untouchably (im)pure about the original. ‘Am I evil?’ came Sean’s immortal question. ‘Yes I am!’

Iron MaidenThe Number Of The Beast

It seems strange to recall, but in the U.S. in the 1980s heavy metal often found itself under assault from religious groups convinced that the genre served as a Trojan Horse for the enslavement of the nation’s youth in the name of Satan. Few songs fostered this misbelief as resoundingly as The Number Of The Beast. Iron Maiden helped fan the flames of the song’s reputation by reporting various strange goings-on in the recording studio, while protests and album burnings greeted them when they headed Stateside for a 1982 tour.

RammsteinWeiner Blut

Rammstein have always courted controversy, and 2009 album Liebe Ist Für Alle Da proved to be no exception. It was initially added to Germany’s Federal Department For Media Harmful To Young Persons index, partly for the sadomasochistic song Ich Tu Dir Weh. The real darkness, however, can be found in Wiener Blut. The song is a first-person retelling of the evil perpetrated by Josef Fritzl, who imprisoned and abused his daughter in the basement of their home for 24 years. That’s all you need to know.

Black SabbathBlack Sabbath

Bassist Geezer Butler once painted his home black and hung inverted crosses and pictures of the Devil on the walls and claims that he saw a “black shape” by his bed after reading a book about witchcraft. The incident inspired one of metal’s most potently evil songs, which opens with a thunderstorm and ominous church bell and is propelled by that tritone riff – a collection of notes named diabolus in musica – which guitarist Tony Iommi describes as “really evil and very doomy”. Indeed, this six-minute song birthed an entire genre. Thanks, mysterious intruder.

MayhemFreezing Moon

By the time Freezing Moon was released on the De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas album, Mayhem’s legacy was already the darkest of any group in history. Two people were dead, one by his own hand, while a third person was serving a 21-year jail sentence for the murder of the other. Late Mayhem guitarist Øystein ‘Euronymous’ Aarseth had often spoken about the need for greater extremity and more evil in black metal. At great expense, he got it.

Two versions of Freezing Moon exist. The first remained unreleased for years, and was one of only two recordings of vocalist Dead (Per Yngve Ohlin), a young Swede who had moved to Norway to join Mayhem. A depressive boy who often spoke of a near-death experience as a child, he would talk about suicide in disarmingly casual tones. For early gigs, he would bury his stage clothes underground and smell dead birds in plastic bags. His lyrics for Freezing Moon were unsurprisingly morbid – ‘Everything here is so cold / Everything here is so dark… I remember it was here I died’ – while his vocal performance was unhinged and chilling.

He would never see it released, however. On April 8, 1991, aged just 22, Dead took his own life in the house he shared with the rest of the band. Euronymous, discovering the body, took photos and collected skull fragments to send to friends as necklaces, before calling the police.

Work continued on what would be Mayhem’s debut full-length, with Burzum’s Varg Vikernes enlisted to play bass, and a Hungarian singer, Attila Csihar, drafted in to replace Dead. Following the recording in early ’93, Attila returned to Hungary. What he would next hear from Norway was unthinkable: in the early hours of August 10, 1993, Varg stabbed Euronymous to death in his apartment. He was arrested and sentenced to 21 years.

The song itself, with its chilling, minor-chord intro where icy notes hang like corpses in the gallows, its scything main riff and demonic atmosphere, already showcased perfectly black metal’s musical abyss. But with so much genuine darkness behind it – killer and victim playing together, despite Euronymous’ parents’ request that Varg’s parts be wiped – it now stands as a chilling document of perhaps the most horrifying time in the history of music.

Cinema of Trangression. p1

Where Evil Dwells

Tommy Turner, David Wojnarowicz. U.S, 1985, 28 min

Au fil de mes futurs posts je vous proposerai de découvrir ou bien de revoir les films du Cinéma de la transgression - subversif bien évidement, chaotique et dépravé, un mouvement flash essentiel aux scènes de la No-Wave et du cinéma underground new-yorkais en général.

Cinéastes transgressifs clés, dont Nick Zedd, Richard Kern, Casandra Stark, Beth B, Tommy Turner, Tessa Hughes-Freeland, ainsi que d’autres collaborateurs comme Lydia Lunch, Joe Coleman et David Wojnarowicz, dans la lignée des œuvres pop-trashs d’Andy Warhol bien sûr, de Paul Morissey, Jack Smith, George & Mike Kuchar, ou encore John Waters et bien d’autres.

IIustrations, performances, sonorités rares et souvent dérangeantes, Cinema of Transgression est un mouvement chaotique et spontané, sexuel, marginal, brutal et mort-né. Rien qu’on ne puisse ignorer.

Where Evil Dwells

Initialement intitulé, Satan Teens, Where Evil Dwells est une collaboration inachevée avec Tommy Turner. En septembre 1985, Wojnarowicz et Turner ont commencé à écrire un script basé sur un reportage de 1984 sur Long Island à propos d'un adolescent adorant Satan en train de commettre un meurtre. Le script a pris trois nuits. Ricky Kasso, le chef des abuseurs de PCP, a assassiné son ami de 17 ans, Gary Lauwers à Northport, Long Island en le poignardant à plusieurs reprises et en lui arrachant les yeux. Kasso s'est vanté du meurtre, montrant des amis incrédules Lauwers décomposant le corps, tout en affirmant que Satan avait approuvé. Il a finalement été arrêté et s'est pendu en prison avant son 18e anniversaire. Wojnarowicz et Turner ont non seulement trouvé l'histoire humoristique mais aussi symbolique de la génération

Le film a été tourné à l'origine sur un appareil photo Canon 8 mm, que Turner a emprunté à Richard Kern. Bien que Turner affirme que l'audio et les images ont été perdus dans un incendie, Fales Library and Special Collections possède deux bobines de film Super 8 mm directement de la caméra d'origine. Le film peut être visionné avec des fragments audio originaux, y compris des voix-off parlées à travers une poupée Howdy Doody et la chanson Where Evil Dwells de Wiseblood.

Jim Thirlwell, à l'époque un leader du groupe Wiseblood et connu comme le leader du groupe de metal industriel Foetus, a offert sa chanson à Ricky Kasso pour l’utiliser dans le film, sous réserve que le titre de la chanson soit également le titre du film, Where Evil Dwells.

************************************************************************

CINEMA OF TRANSGRESSION

Over the course of my future posts, I will suggest that you discover or review the films of the Cinema of Transgression - "Cinema Of Transgression", subversive, chaotic and depraved, essential to the scenes of the No-Wave movement of the 80s and underground cinema. New Yorker.

Key transgressive filmmakers, including Nick Zedd, Richard Kern, Casandra Stark, Beth B, Tommy Turner, Tessa Hughes-Freeland, and others like Lydia Lunch, Joe Coleman and David Wojnarowicz, along the lines of pop-trash 'Andy Warhol of course, by Paul Morissey, Jack Smith, George & Mike Kuchar, or John Waters and many others.

IIustrations, performances, rare and often sounds disturbing, Cinema of Transgression is a chaotic and spontaneous, sexual, marginal, brutal and stillborn movement. Nothing you can't ignore.

Beware all the same it will shake! Keep the fragile ones away.

These are not films to summarize. But to watch

Here are the first two for today. (Second one follows in another post)

Originally titled, Satan Teens, Where Evil Dwells is an unfinished collaboration with Tommy Turner. In September 1985, Wojnarowicz and Turner began writing a script based on a 1984 report on Long Island about a teenage boy worshiping Satan committing murder. The script took three nights. Ricky Kasso, the chief abuser of PCP, murdered his 17-year-old friend Gary Lauwers in Northport, Long Island by stabbing him repeatedly and tearing out his eyes. Kasso bragged about the murder, showing Lauwers incredulous friends breaking down the body, while claiming that Satan had approved. He was eventually arrested and hanged himself in prison before his 18th birthday. Wojnarowicz and Turner not only found the humorous but also symbolic story of the generation

The film was originally filmed on an 8mm Canon camera, which Turner borrowed from Richard Kern. Although Turner claims that the audio and images were lost in a fire, Fales Library and Special Collections has two reels of Super 8mm film directly from the original camera. The film can be viewed with original audio fragments, including voiceovers spoken through a Howdy Doody doll and Wiseblood's song Where Evil Dwells.

Jim Thirlwell, at the time a leader of the group Wiseblood and known as the leader of the industrial metal group Fetus, offered his song to Ricky Kasso for use in the film, provided that the title of the song is also the film title, Where Evil Dwells.

My Harry Potter OCs

Since gold, silver, and platinum are already taken, I call them the "Iridium Trio" after my personal favorite precious metal. Enjoy!

Conrad Tristram Griffith Birthdate: 3 June 1978 Ancestry: Pure-blood Family: Parents Lionel Griffith and Desdemona Griffith (née Rosier), younger sister Daena Griffith, paternal grandparents Tristram Griffith and Proserpina Griffith (née Malfoy), maternal grandmother Phoebe Rosier (née Greengrass), paternal aunt Wilmot Bolloré (née Griffith), uncle Vitalis Bolloré, first cousin Urien Bolloré, paternal uncle Cador Griffith, aunt Euphemia Griffith (née Travers), first cousin Tamara Griffith, paternal great-uncle Abraxas Malfoy, paternal great-aunt Cordelia Malfoy (née Wilkes), first cousin once removed Lucius Malfoy, second cousin Draco Malfoy, paternal great-uncle Matthias Nott, first cousin once removed Theodore Nott, maternal great-aunt Druella Black (née Rosier), maternal great-uncle Cygnus Black Friends: Aislinn Gilchrist, Edmund Blackwell, Adrian Pucey, Graham Montague, Cassius Warrington, Rhys Prosser. Childhood home: Griffith Manse, Cornwall Pet: Kalim (melanistic Maine coon cat) Eye color: Stormy grey Hair color: Long, black, fine Other physical characteristics: Thin and muscular. First year at Hogwarts: 1989 House: Slytherin Quidditch: Reserve Keeper for Slytherin House team 1991-1996 Awards, etc.: Prefect 1993-1996 Wand: Hawthorn and dragon heartstring, eleven inches. Broomstick: Nimbus 1700 Organizations and affiliations: Slytherin reserve Quidditch Keeper, dueling club Skills: Quidditch, Potions, Arithmancy Patronus: Hippogriff Boggart: Alastor Moody Other facts

Like most Slytherin prefects, he took snakelets under his wing. His favorites included his younger sister Daena, her friend Lydia Culhain, and future Quidditch star Emmanuel Vaisey.

He has a complex relationship with Daena, who was always their parents’ favorite, which led him to resent her. However, she had always been a loving sister to him, which made him feel guilty for his feelings of resentment.

Being a pure-blood, he is related to all of the other pure-blood families. In addition to the relatives listed above, Evan Rosier was his uncle, and through his great-uncle Cygnus, he's related to everyone named on the Black Tapestry.

Alastor Moody is somewhat of a family "boogey man", which is why Moody is his boggart.

He wasn't a member of the Inquisitorial Squad, but still disliked the Defense Association for what they did to his friend and roommate Graham Montague.

He's fluent in French due to having relatives in Brittany, who his family visit every summer.

His cousin Urien was part of the Beauxbatons delegation during the Triwizard Tournament.

TV Tropes that apply to him:

Bi The Way: He had a slight boycrush on Snape throughout his school years.

Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: The brunet to Edmund's blond and Aislinn's redhead.

Brainy Brunet

Cool Big Bro

Genius Sweet Tooth

Long-Haired Pretty Boy

Proud Beauty: A rare male example.

Real Men Wear Pink: Generally very masculine, but has long hair and takes pride in his androgynous good looks.

Aislinn Maeve Gilchrist Ancestry: Half-blood. Family: Parents Diarmuid Gilchrist and Caitlin Gilchrist, aunt Diahann Gilchrist Friends: Conrad Griffith, Edmund Blackwell Birthdate: 1 March 1978 Location of childhood home: Ireland. Pet: Tawny owl Eye color: Blue. Hair color: Strawberry blonde, wavy, just below shoulder-length First year at Hogwarts: 1989 House: Slytherin Quidditch: N/A Awards, etc.: Prefect 1993-1996 Wand: Ash and unicorn hair, twelve inches Broomstick: None Organizations & affiliations: Charms club, dueling club. Skills: Charms, Potions, Astronomy. Patronus: Fox Boggart: Her father disowning her Other facts

Her father Diarmuid is a registered Animagus who turns into a fox, which is why her Patronus is a fox.

Her father and her aunt Diahann were an example of twins being sorted into different houses - Diarmuid into Ravenclaw and Diahann into Hufflepuff.

She resents Quidditch getting more attention than other clubs and activities, and will only attend games if Conrad is playing.

She had a crush on Conrad for a while, but later realized that she had feelings for his sister Daena. They officially became a couple three years after the Second Wizarding Gang Rumble.

TV Tropes that apply to her:

Bi The Way

Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: The redhead to Conrad's brunet and Edmund's blond.

Daddy's Girl

Fiery Redhead

Red Oni, Blue Oni: The red to Edmund's blue.

Tomboy with a Girly Streak

Tomboy and Girly Girl: Tomboy to Daena's Girly Girl.

Edmund Thomas Blackwell Ancestry: M*ggl*-born (paternal great-grandmother was a Squib). Family: Parents Herbert Blackwell and Martha Blackwell, older brother Christopher Blackwell, younger sister Allison Blackwell Friends: Conrad Griffith, Aislinn Gilchrist, Adrian Pucey, Graham Montague, Rhys Prosser Birthdate: 17 February 1978 Location of childhood home: Northern England Pet: None Eye color: Hazel. Hair color: Ash blonde, short in the front, long in the back. Started growing a beard at 15. Other physical characteristics: Tall and solidly-built. First year at Hogwarts: 1989 House: Slytherin Quidditch: N/A Awards, etc.: None Wand: Rowan and phoenix feather, twelve and three-quarters inches Broomstick: None Organizations & affiliations: Dueling club Skills: Potions, Transfiguration, dueling. Patronus: Alsatian Boggart: A giant snake

He always felt overlooked as the middle child of his siblings, so he was ecstatic after getting his Hogwarts letter, because that made him the special one for once.

Although he doesn’t look like it, he’s a voracious reader. His favorite genre is historical fiction.

As a M*ggl*-born, he was distraught at being sorted into Slytherin, but was surprised to be not only be accepted, but welcomed.

Through his Squib great-grandmother, he is a third cousin to Kevin of "You bust slug!" fame.

Unlike most Hogwarts students, he actually enjoys History of Magic. In fact, he was the only one of the Iridium Trio to get his History NEWT.

He was the Slytherin in his year who tried to swim down to the common room window.

Ironically, he's afraid of snakes.

He’s also afraid of heights, which is why he doesn’t play Quidditch despite having a good Beater’s build.

His Patronus is an Alsatian because he has one at home.

He was disappointed that he wasn't old enough to put his name in the Goblet of Fire, but after Cedric's death, he realized that if he had put his name in and been chosen, he would be dead, causing him to enter a period of existential angst.

TV Tropes that apply to him:

Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: The blond to Conrad's brunet and Aislinn's redhead.

Face of a Thug: Despite being the most menacing-looking of the Iridium Trio, he’s also the kindest.

Gentle Giant

Middle Child Syndrome

Red Oni, Blue Oni: The blue to Aislinn's red.

LE FONDEMENT D'ÊTRE UN PARENT: LA PAROLE DE DIEU. ( PARTIE 1 )

Comment une maison peut être spirituellement bâtie et affermie?

À travers l'histoire, la maison a ( toujours ) été le lieu central pour le développement, l'éducation et la jouissance ( le plaisir ) d'une famille. Elle a toujours été le lieu primordial où la croissance physique, mentale et spirituelle est engendrée. Considérez ces citations de certains écrivains du dix neuvième siècle :

<< La maison est la plus grande de toutes les institutions >> ( C.H SPURGEON ). << La maison est la première école des vertus humaines >> ( WILLIAM ELLERY CHANNING ). << La force d'une nation, spécialement d'une nation républicaine, est dans les maisonnées intelligentes et bien organisées de son peuple >> ( LYDIA HOWARD SIGOURNEY ). << Une maisonnée joyeuse est le seul lieu de repos qu'un homme a sur cette terre pour le développement de ses plus nobles sensibilités. >> ( F. W. ROBERTSON ).

À cette époque où des inquiétudes grandissent à propos de la stabilité et de l'intégrité de la famille, la Parole de Dieu donne une perspective claire sur comment une maison/famille spirituelle peut être bâtie et affermie par des hommes et des femmes engagés qui désirent le faire.

Quels sont les éléments essentiels pour qu'une maison soit bénie ?

Les éléments essentiels pour qu'une maison soit bénie sont que ses habitants respectent Dieu et marchent selon Sa Parole. Les Écritures parlent de ces fondements.

Psaumes 128 : 1 - 4

1- Cantique des degrés. Heureux

tout homme qui craint

[ respecte ] l'Éternel, Qui marche

dans ses voies!

2- Tu jouis alors du travail de tes

mains, Tu es heureux, tu

prospères.

3- Ta femme est comme une vigne

féconde Dans l'intérieur de ta

maison; Tes fils sont comme des

plants d'olivier, Autour de ta table.

4- C'est ainsi qu'est béni L'homme

qui craint [ respecte ] l'Éternel.

Dans un langage merveilleux, le psalmiste décrit les bénédictions et l'abondance qui découlent de respecter Dieu et de marcher dans Ses voies. L'homme jouira du travail de ses mains, sera heureux et propérera. La femme est décrite comme une vigne féconde dans l'intérieur de sa maison et les enfants sont comparés à des plants d'olivier autour de sa table. Ces termes reflètent la culture orientale des temps bibliques. Bishop K. C Pillai, un croyant de l'Inde a enseigné les coutumes orientale une fois comme suit :

ll a enseigné que la maison orientale était construite avec une cour au milieu. Là, les occupants plantaient des arbres fruitiers et de la vigne. lls faisaient ceci parce qu'ils croyaient que là où la vigne était, Dieu était présent. La vigne grimpait sur les toits des maisons et produisait des fruits. La vigne féconde représente la prospérité et la présence et la bénédiction de Dieu dans la maison. C'est à ceci que la femme était comparée. La femme va apporter la prospérité à la famille comme la vigne féconde au vignole.

Les enfants sont comme des plants d'olivier autour de la table. Un olivier produit des fruits pendant des décennies. Au fur et à mesure qu'il vieillit, des bourgeons, soient vingt ou trente, poussent sur les racines tout autour de l'arbre. Ils commencent à porter du fruit ; ils soutiennent l'arbre parents, qui est retraité en étant planté autour de ces racines, lui donnant de la force et produisant des fruits pour son compte. Ceci représente le support que des enfants bien élevés sont pour leurs parents.

Nous avons vu en Psaumes 128 que la maison entière d'un homme sera bénie. D'autres écritures dépeignent cette grande vérité.

Psaumes 92 : 13

13- Les justes croissent comme le

palmier, Ils s'élèvent comme le

cèdre du Liban.

14- Plantés dans la maison de

l'Éternel, Ils prospèrent dans les

parvis de notre Dieu.

Voici la traduction littérale Amplifiée selon l'acception biblique de Psaumes 92 : 13 : 14 ,

Les justes ( sans

compromission ) croissent

comme le palmier ( vivent

longtemps, majestueux, honnêtes

honorable et frustueux ) ; ils

s'élèvent comme le cèdre du

Liban ( majestueux, stable,

durable et incorruptible ).

Plantés dans la maison de

l'Éternel, ils prospèrent dans les

parvis de notre Dieu.

Note Père céleste promet de permettre aux justes qui sont plantés dans la maison de l'Éternel de croître, de vivre longtemps, honorables et fructueux et prospérer. Nous voyons dans ces versets que respecter l'Éternel et marcher dans Ses voies sont le fondement d'une florissante/prospère d'une maison.

À suivre . . .

Que Dieu vous bénisse abondamment, vous fortifie, vous protège et vous garde en parfaite santé au nom de Jésus-Christ, amen!

Le ravissement

FICTION MATERNELLE Le ravissement , premier long-métrage d’Iris Kaltenbäck, est un film qui ne peut manquer de faire penser au Ravissement de Lol V. Stein en raison de la polysémie du titre car si le sens du rapt n’est pas le premier qui apparaît, c’est bien d’un ravissement par l’habitation poétique du monde et lié à la possibilité de se raconter à travers autrui.

American Dirt, Jeanine Cummins

J’ai tellement vu passer ce roman à sa sortie, et on m’en a tellement parlé (à la fois les client.e.s de la librairie et sur les réseaux sociaux) qu’il me faisait envie depuis un bail. Le genre de livre où tu te dis « Ok je connais rien à l’histoire, à peu près les grandes lignes, mais ça a l’air trop bien » et où tu l’achètes les yeux fermés.

On y suit l’histoire de Lydia, libraire à Acapulco au Mexique, qui mène une existence plus ou moins paisible malgré les tensions et les violences causées dans la ville par les puissants cartels de narcotraficantes. Jusqu’au jour où son mari Sebastián, s’apprêtant à révéler dans la presse l’identité du chef du principal cartel, lui apprend qu’il s’agit de Javier, un client érudit avec qui elle s’est liée dans sa librairie… Tout bascule quelques heures plus tard. Du massacre ordonné et orchestré par Javier, Lydia et son fils de huit ans Luca sont les seuls survivants. Elle décide alors de fuir pour sa vie, parce qu’elle sait que Javier n’aura de cesse de les poursuivre pour finir le travail. Et les voilà tous deux rejoignants le flot de migrants qui tentent leur chance à bord du terrible train la Bestia, pour tenter de traverser la frontière avec les États-Unis.

Au début, j’ai eu un peu de mal à me plonger dans American Dirt. La violence y est omniprésente, et ce dès les premières lignes, avec l’exécution de pas moins de 16 personnes et la fuite désespérée de Lydia et Luca. Mais très vite, passées les 100 premières pages (sur un total de 560, ça va) j’ai été happée par l’histoire. Remplie de tragédies, mais aussi remplie d’espoir. J’ai particulièrement encore plus accroché quand Lydia et Luca se lient avec deux sœurs venues du Honduras, Soledad et Rebeca. J’ai adoré leurs personnages ! La suite, je l’ai dévorée très rapidement.

Beaucoup de passages m’ont fait froid dans le dos, parce qu’ils mettaient en avant la cruauté des cartels et des narcotraficants. À travers le passé de Lydia, celui de Soledad et celui de Rebeca, on a pu voir toute l’étendue de leur violence. Trafics d’humains, assassinats, violences, viols, kidnapping… la liste est longue. Mais j’ai aussi adoré tout cet autre côté chaleureux et rempli d’espoir, avec des humains qui aident d’autres humains. Un roman dur et intense, sur les violences de la vie des migrants forcés de tout quitter pour une vie qu’ils espèrent meilleure. Terrifiant et pourtant rempli d’espoir !

Hardin accepte de l’héberger mais ne fait pas confiance à cet homme, convaincu qu’il cache une partie de la vérité. Mais ce n’est pas le seul obstacle. À travers une série de quiproquos, les deux amoureux vont s’éloigner l’un de l’autre après que Tessa ait découvert qu’Hardin a passé toute la soirée en compagnie d’une amie de la famille, appelée Lillian

Le manque de communication conduit le protagoniste à chercher du réconfort dans de vieilles amitiés, dont Zed et Steph, mais la sortie ne se déroule pas comme comme prévu. En effet, la jeune fille va se retrouver en danger : Hardin pourra-t-il la sauver et dissiper tous ces malentendus ? Concernant l’intrigue du film, Castille Landon, le réalisateur d’Zone(s) de turbulence nous assure qu’il sera fidèle au roman du même nom.

Le casting du film Zone(s) de turbulence : qui sera là ? Nous verrons probablement le retour de deux personnages principaux : Héro Fiennes-Tiffin et Josephine Langford, comme Hardin et Tessa, Zone(s) de turbulenceivement. Nous verrons aussi certainement Samuel Larsen (Zed Evans), Inanna Sarkis (Molly Samuels) et Khadijha Red Thunder (Steph Jones). Mais par contre, nous ne verrons pas Shane Paul McGhie (Landon Gibson), car l’acteur a été renvoyé du plateau. Dylan Sprouse, dont le rôle est Trevor ne revient pas non plus.

Mais il y a aussi une nouvelle de dernière minute : d’autres acteurs ne reviendront pas dans le troisième film, d’où la nécessité d’un renouvellement. Déjà dans Zone(s) de turbulence 2, on se rend compte que le père d’Hardin n’est plus joué par Peter Gallagher (Andy Cohen pourquoi es-tu parti ?) mais par Rob Estes et que la mère de Landon n’est plus jouée par Jennifer Beals mais par Karimah Westbrook. Nous verrons également beaucoup de changements dans Zone(s) de turbulence. En commençant par Candice King et Charlie Weber : les deux acteurs ne seront plus Kim et Christian Vance.

L’actrice que nous avons appris à aimer dans The Vampire Diaries comme Caroline est enceinte de son deuxième enfant ! Sa grossesse l’empêche donc de retourner sur le plateau pour filmer Zone(s) de turbulence. Candice sera remplacée par Arielle Kebbel que nous avons déjà vu dans The Vampire Diaries: : Il s’agit de Lexi, le meilleur ami de Stefan ! Charlie sera remplacé par Stephen Moyer. Aussi Selma Blair, qui joue la mère de Tessa, est remplacée par Mira Sorvino. En plus de toutes ces modifications, il y a aussi une nouvelle arrivée : Carter Jenkins, qui jouera Robert, le potentiel amoureux de Tessa.

La raison de tous ces changements est que le fait de tourner deux films ensemble empêche aussi certains des acteurs principaux de participer à d’autres engagements professionnels ou autres.
