Did you know
- TriviaEuronymous wasn't a big drinker and, according to all sources, drank a vast quantity of Coca Cola (which is visible throughout the film).
- GoofsWhen Varg leaves the video store on 10 August 1993 with a copy of Die Hard 2 (1990), the video cases for several films that would not be released until several years later can be seen in the window, including The Bone Collector (1999) and Analyze That (2002).
- Quotes
Euronymous: [standing over Dead with a shotgun] You know, there's a way out if you're so fucking depressed. One shot to the head and it's all over. No more pain.
- Alternate versionsThe US theatrical and DVD releases were cut for an R rating, toning down the gory violence of Dead's suicide, Faust's stabbing and Euronymous' murder. The unrated 'directors cut' version is only available on Blu-ray in the US. It runs for 118 minutes instead of 116 as per the R-rated version.

Featured review
Don't believe the haters
I didn't expect to like it, but it was pretty good! Brutal scenes and seemed to stay true to much of the information I've accrued over the years. Varg hates everything, but this seems to be more of his angle on what happened, which in general terms was that Euronymous was a "poser" and took credit for things that weren't his. Hey, it's a movie not a documentary. Only Varg really knows what happened that night and he's already told the his side of things. It's well made, entertaining, and very brutal at times. Give it an honest go and see what you think.
