Summary:

Stephen (Brian Paulin) and Ian (Rich George) are ruthless drug lords who are in the middle of a war with their rival Billy Rae Douglas (Matt Trottier). One night Stephen and Ian escort two girls home with them whom actually seem to be stranger than they are. The next morning they wake up and the girls are gone and Stephen and Ian are not feeling so well and soon find out their lives have been changed forever. They find out that the girls were actually Angels that infected them with a vampire type virus. In exchange for immortality, Stephen and Ian along with the other hordes of Vampires, are to kill off the human race so that the Angels can take back what should have been theirs. The Vampires begin their gruesome and unstoppable slaughter of mankind until the Demon world steps in to put an end to the Angel's plans for earthly domination, for the Demons are satisfied with the way the three worlds co-exists. A three-way war is on... and no-one may survive the bloody and horrifying carnage.

Note:

- Filming in and around Southeastern Massachusetts began on July 3rd 1997 and wrapped in August 1998 (with an estimated budget of $ 6000).
- Having been shot on digital video, writer/director/actor/editor/SFX artist Brian Paulin had an editing computer built for him and learned how to edit digitally while editing this movie, as Eli Connors was unable to continue editing after just 10 mins. were completed due to work schedules.
- The film is most likely titled after the Slayer song of the same name, given the directors affinity to metal.
