Synopsis

Watch: Until the Light Takes Us 2008 123movies, Full Movie Online – Chronicles the history, ideology and aesthetic of Norwegian black metal – a musical subculture infamous as much for a series of murders and church arsons as it is for its unique musical and visual aesthetics. This is the first (and only) film to truly shed light on a movement that has heretofore been shrouded in darkness and rumor and obscured by inaccurate and shallow depictions. Featuring exclusive interviews and verité with the musicians, a wealth of rare, seldom seen footage from the “Inner Circle”s earliest days, Until the Light Takes Us explores every aspect of the controversial movement that has captured the attention of the world. This is the movie that gets inside the minds and hearts of black metal’s musicians. The filmmakers moved to Norway, living and filming there for two years. The movie is not about them though – it’s about the extraordinary people and events that make black metal unique, unforgettable, and inevitable. This is black metal as seen through the eyes of those who created it, of those who live it, of those who are at the center of the story of black metal..

Reviews:

Complete apologist piece for Vikernes.
Aaron Aites and Audrey Ewell turn out to be complete apologists for Vikernes. There is no mention of his role in the Heathen Front. No confrontation about his earlier writings in neo- nazi zines. It’s as if his Odinism somehow exists outside his racist, pure-blood nationalism and eugenicism. It’s cool to bag on Christians, god knows they’ve bagged on us for about 1500 years now, but Vikernes’ real extremism goes completely unexplored, though the filmmakers are quick to labor the point that he’s not a satanist, which any black metal fan knows.

Look, the burning of Christian churches, the suicide, the murder, and the subsequent media feeding frenzy that launched Norwegian black metal onto the world stage, it’s all interesting stuff, and there are some places where the record must be corrected. But this is over- correction. This is essentially a propaganda piece for Vikernes that in no way addresses the full and real picture of him or the movement.

I’m not looking for demonization, I’m looking for basic, fully realized non-fiction. It’s not here. If you’re not familiar with the early 90’s Norwegian black metal movement and the mayhem that went down in it, then you should check this out. But just know that when you’re being charmed by Vikernes, as the filmmakers seem to have been, you’re being charmed by a very dark guy indeed. This is too loose to be journalism, too soft to be sensationalism, and too clumsy to be of much use to anyone.

…But Where’s The Music?
‘Until The Light Gets Us’,tries it’s darndest to do for Black Metal (a kind of Heavy Metal hybrid from Norway,with contempt for standard form in that genre of music:i.e harmony & melody) what ‘The Decline Of Western Civilization’ did for Punk Rock back in the early 1980’s,but falls somewhat short. Most of the documentary focuses on Varg Vikernes,a former member of a Black Metal band,that is currently serving a 21 year prison sentence for (alleged)murder & arson. Other persons that figure in this is Fenriz (yeah,you guessed it—another member of a Black Metal band),Hellhammer (they seem to have a penchant for some colourful names,don’t they?),and even Harmony Korine (screen writer of ‘Kids’,and director of such fare as ‘Gummo’ & ‘Julian Donkey Boy’),who tries to pass himself off as some kind of a Black Metal performance artist (we get to see an excerpt of one of his performance pieces at a performing arts space that has to be seen to be believed). The film (actually video,as it’s shot in HD format)does benefit from some intelligent interview footage with Varg,as well as some others. We also get to find out about all of the negative press that Black Metal gets (oh gee,perhaps incidents,including the burning of churches,murder,suicide,the number of Satanic references that turn up,just may have to do with the general public prospering a fear and/or outright hatred of the whole Black Metal sub genre) The only question is…why isn’t there much actual performance footage,or for that matter,much actual Black Metal music (most of the soundtrack consists of Dark Ambient,with just a few brief washes of Black Metal here & there)? First time directors,Aaron Aites & Audrey Ewell co direct a “rock doc” that,although well meaning,falls short. Cinematography by Audrey Ewell & Odd Reinhart-Nicolaysen,with editing by Andrew Ford. Certainly not the worst film dealing with the subject of Heavy Metal,but not the best by a long shot. It’s your money & time. Spoken in English,and Norwegian with English subtitles. Not rated by the MPAA, this video movie contains pervasive strong language & some gruesome/disturbing images that you may want to take a pass on that large popcorn,on
