Hey Everyone!
We meant to post this earlier but the end of production was a whirlwind! On Aug 30 we officially wrapped filming on Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon! The final shot of the film was a decapitated head flying through the air in slow motion - a fitting end to our blood-soaked sequel.
Our cast & crew on Day 20
We're now working on an assembly edit of the film and hope to have a solid first cut ready for early November. Our goal is still to have the film ready for a March 2025 World Premiere so we will keep you abreast of our progress.
In other news, the Deathgasm pin is FINALLY in production. For those of you who ordered one, thank you for your patience with this. We're a small team here and obviously making a great sequel was our first priority. I've been told that the pins should be in our hands by end of Oct, so we will ship them out shortly after that.
We also made our first batch of Deathgasm 2 t-shirts for our amazing crew. The graphic print and fabric quality is awesome! So for all of you who ordered one, you will be super happy when you finally get your dirty mitts on it.
That's it for now. More updates next months.
METAL UP YOUR ASS!!

Hey Gang!
Week 3 of production is almost in the can, and HOLY FUCK we are getting some KILLER footage and performances!! I can honestly say there are going to be some epic scenes in this movie that you guys are going to DIE FOR!!
As a fan of the first film myself it's been such a thrill to see the original cast bringing these characters we all know and love back to life, in surprisingly new ways. Plus the new characters we have in this film are equally fun & memorable.
There's so much we'd like to show you, but we want the film to be a complete surprise for you when you finally do get to see it, so for now these pics will have to suffice.

Next week we're shooting the film's big finale - we'll be sure to send you another update then. Again, we can't thank you enough for your patience and your support in helping us bring DEATHGASM II to life!
LIGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION!!

HEY GANG!
Cameras have started to roll on DEATHGASM II: GOREMAGEDDON!! That's right, we are finally in production on the long awaited sequel, and we couldn't have done it without all of you!!
Director Jason Lei Howden on set Day 1
In the last 2 weeks all the cast & crew have come together in the bustling film hub of Regina, Saskatchewan in order to bring your favourite metalheads back from the dead - literally. Milo, James, Dan and Sam are all here in Canada, which is doubling surprisingly well for small town, New Zealand.
The band is back together #Where'sKim?
We will be filming for the next month, wrapping on Aug 30, and have assembled an amazing team of artists & technicians to make Part 2 the goriest, funnest, and most metal sequel imaginable.
Milo back in the saddle again as Brodie
We have an ambitious post-production schedule, aiming to have the film complete for the film festival circuit Spring 2025. If all goes according to plan the film will get its official release late 2025. We will strive to update you once a week for the next month, giving all of you an inside peak on how your pledges have helped bring the film to fruition.
That's all for now. More updates coming soon from the set of Deathgasm 2: Electric Boogaloo!

HEY GANG!!
First off, our apologies for the long silence! Getting movies made is always a huge undertaking - logistics, scheduling, creative refinements, etc. etc. But we're happy to say that we will very soon be making an announcement as to when & where DEATHGASM 2 will be going into production!
In the meantime we wanted to show you some of the storyboards that director Jason Howden has been working on as he preps for the shoot.
Some small town cops learn pepper spray doesn't affectively stop Zombies...
A neighbour gets something stuck in her throat...
Dion's keyboard solo garners him some new fans....
We're also aware we're behind on delivering the pins - sorry about that! But the good news is they are going into production next week!
We truly appreciate your support and patience as we work to make DEATHGASM 2 the most kick-ass heavy metal, horror/comedy sequel of all time!
Stay tuned for more soon!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hey Gang!
Sure it's Jan 17th, but fuck it, we haven't talked since last year so Happy New Year to you all! Here's our first update of the year for ya:
For those of you who selected the Have Your Name Said or Graffitied, or the Have Your Picture Shown rewards, we have sent out emails to collect those juicy details from you. Please respond as soon as you can as our fearless director, Jason Howden, is hard at work on a new draft of the script and wants to include you in it. If you purchased one of those rewards but didn't get an email, do let us know.
For those of you who follow Hollywood biz, you're probably very aware of the SAG strike that took place last year. Well now that it's over film production is BOOMING in New Zealand, which on one hand is great, but on the other, it makes finding crew for indie films a little more challenging. So that said, it's looking like a realistic timeline for us to go into production is May/June of this year. That's what we're marching towards and will let you all know once this is confirmed.
In regards to some of the rewards such as the Ice Cream Pins, we selected a delivery date of Jan 2024 for those, but we're a little behind on their manufacturing. So we hope to have those out next month. And regarding the signed photos, it's going to be much easier for us to get those done during production of the film, so their delivery will follow soon after that. We trust that's cool with everyone.
Lastly, for those asking to make changes/modifications or additions to their rewards, our BackerKit page is now live!
If you have any questions please let us know, and we'll strive to get back to you as soon as possible!
