Powertool Cheerleaders vs the Boyband of the Screeching Dead

This film is so funny, some brilliant one liners and also plenty of blood and guts. The plot is well thought out with some really rememberable scenes, the songs are catchy.

The characters in the cheerleaders and the boyband are great and you get to see their individual traits and the dynamics of each of the groups. Plenty of other characters that are well thought out and have their moment in the limelight before most of them meet their demise.

I seen it at the world premier and frightfest and it got a massive round of applause when the credits ran so it is a film well worth watching must be the No.1 film that crosses over the 3 genres of Comedy, Horror and Musical ;-)

Powertool Cheerleaders vs The Boyband of the Screeching Dead is an indie horror-comedy-musical that's as wild as its title suggests. It follows waitress Emily, who must overcome her fear of cheerleaders to lead a misfit squad in a TV talent show. Things go haywire when a cursed talisman turns their boyband rivals into zombies, forcing the girls to use friendship and power tools to survive. The film is packed with self-aware humor, catchy but campy songs, and practical effects that shine on a budget. It's chaotic, clever, and wonderfully trashy, with fourth-wall-breaking antics and meta references. A love letter to Troma-style horror and a fun, bloody romp for those who enjoy campy musicals with a twist.

If you're in the mood for a wild ride, look no further than Powertool Cheerleaders. This fun film is a delightful mash-up of genres that takes you on a hilarious journey filled with catchy musical numbers, over-the-top humor, and some unexpectedly heartwarming moments. The chemistry among the cast is infectious but what truly sets this film apart is its ability to break the fourth wall and deliver zany, laugh-out-loud moments while maintaining a strong narrative. From the hilarious introduction of quirky characters to the clever writing filled with witty one-liners, there's never a dull moment.

This is one of those amazing films where you wonder (in a good way) what am I watching? This is a genre bending delight. The film is well written with some lovely one-liners and funny insights. The plot revolves around a TV talent contest with the competition including a cheerleader group and a boy band. The musical numbers are catchy and inspired. My favourite number was "I am just a guy dying on the floor". Please watch if you get a chance as I was lucky enough to catch this at the World Premiere in London. Funny, original and imaginative. Charlie Bond and James Hamer-Morton are great as the leads and are well supported by a strong cast.

I was lucky enough the catch this indie gem at Frightfest London 2022 and it did not disappoint. A horror comedy musical filled with heart, gore and some really fun performances from a clearly passionate cast that put everything into the movie.

The movie follows a misfit cheerleading group called 'Power Cheer', the girls enter a reality TV contest and come up against the Starmen (whose intro harmony had me in stitches every time) and things soon veer into the supernatural territory with a cursed wishing necklace that brings a load of Zombie/Demons to the party, resulting in some great splattery gore. There's also a really fun love story involving a severed hand but I'll let you find out about that for yourself!

The writing is spot on with one-liners and jokes that land well, both in dialogue and the songs which had me tapping my feet quite a few times.

This film is a very pure example of micro budget indie filmmaking at its best and I had a fantastic time watching it. It can be scrappy around the edges in some places but all that is totally forgiven moments later when the next hilarious song kicks in. Check this out as soon as you can, you won't regret it.
