Straight From Troma: Motörhead’s Latest Hit, ‘Outlaw,’ Featured in Upcoming Troma Film, Mr. Bricks: A Heavy Metal Murder Musical

(New York,NY) – Greetings from Tromaville! Troma Entertainment’s latest film, MR. BRICKS: A HEAVY METAL MURDER MUSICAL, thanks to Lemmy Kilmister’s Troma love, will feature Motörhead’s latest metal anthem, “Outlaw.” “Outlaw” was recently released on the band’s most recent album, The World is Yours (2010, Future PLC/Motörhead Music). Motörhead is the legendary English rock band formed in 1975 by bassist, singer and songwriter Ian (Lemmy) Fraser Kilmister, often considered one of the earliest members of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. The band is ranked number 26 on VH1’s 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock. MR. BRICKS will be coming to theaters this fall.

Lemmy Kilmister’s relationship with Troma dates  back  to 1995,  when Lemmy  was  a featured     actor    in     Tromeo   and    Juliet (directed  by  Lloyd  Kaufman  and   written by   James     Gunn).    Lemmy   also     freely supplied the hit song “Sacrifice” for the film. Lemmy   has   also  acted  in  Troma’s  Terror Firmer and Citizen  Toxie:  The Toxic Avenger Part IV.  In  2010, Troma produced a tribute to  Lemmy  for  all his  hard  work  and  dedi- cation   to    independent   cinema   and   the Troma Team. This tribute was shown at The Canadian NXNW Festival.

Mr. Bricks, directed by Travis Campbell and produced by Justin Martell, is a musical the likes of which have never been seen. MR. BRICKS: A HEAVY METAL MURDER MUSICAL introduces tattooed muscleman Tim Dax as Mr. Bricks, an ex-con left for dead in an empty New York City warehouse. Rocked by headaches caused by the bullet lodged in his brain, he pieces together memories – the barrel of a gun…his girl’s scream…and eventually, the face of the dirty cop (Vito Trigo, Dark Windows) who pulled the trigger!All he wants is to find his missing girl, Scarlet (Troma discovery Nicola Fiore, Ms. Cannibal Holocaust, Game Over), and vows to kill anyone that gets in his way. Love is murder in this bloody tale of lust, desire and revenge. Like G. G. Allin meets The Rocky Horror Picture Show, MR. BRICKS will knock you out of your seat with nine head-banging musical numbers.

Established in 1974 by Yale friends Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz, Troma Entertainment is one of the longest running independent movie studios in United States’ history and one of the best-known names in the industry. World famous for movie classics like Kaufman’s The Toxic Avenger, Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead, Class of Nuke’em High, Mother’s Day, and Tromeo and Juliet, Troma’s seminal films are now being remade as big budget mainstream productions by the likes of Brett Ratner, Richard Saperstein, Akiva Goldsman, and Steven Pink.  Among today’s stars whose early work can be found in Troma’s 800+ film library are Trey Parker, Matt Stone, Jenna Fischer, Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Costner, Fergie, Vincent D’Onofrio and Samuel L. Jackson.
