Powertool Cheerleaders vs the Boyband of the Screeching Dead

I really enjoyed the film, another great showcase of Pat Higgins' directing talent! He manages to deliver all the gore and scares we've come to expect, but this time, he adds some musical numbers. I was skeptical about how a horror film could balance musical comedy with the intensity of gore, but Higgins nails it perfectly.

The film makes you genuinely care about what happens to the characters. It's refreshing to see that depth in a genre where that's not always the focus.

I have to give a special mention to Alan Ronald-his standout song midway through the film is an absolute highlight. It really captures the spirit of the film. Overall - a unique blend of horror and humor that's definitely worth a watch!

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.

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 just watched the movie Powertool Cheerleaders vs the Boyband of the Screeching Dead.

The movie has a lot of strong scenes that I enjoyed watching and which were very comical.

The movie is written & directed by Pat Higgins.

I'm not really sure which category I'd put this movie in... but it's funny.

The movie has fun dialogue and drama and crazy scenes. It was also shot in a very cool way with many scenes that are insane to see and experience. The storyline pulls you in many directions as you're watching this movie.. I thought all the lead actors all had great onscreen chemistry- they were great together. The sets are great for an indie movie. I look forward to what this director and filmmaker has coming up next! Check this movie out! You'll remember it! Lol Scary and funny and crazy!!! POWER CHEER!

When a cursed amulet transforms their rival boy band into a screeching horde of undead, a spirited group of cheerleaders must use their wits, friendship, and a wild arsenal of power tools to survive a talent show gone apocalyptic. This award-winning festival favorite is a horror-musical-comedy mashup that's as inventive as it is entertaining.

Written and directed by the talented Pat Higgins and starring the charismatic Charlie Bond, this film is a love letter to creativity and genre-bending cinema. Equal parts musical, apocalyptic action, and cheerleader vs. Boy band showdown, it also delivers a healthy dose of comedy. While the "zombies" in question defy traditional labels, their antics provide a hilariously chaotic twist on the undead genre.

With its vibrant colors, fast-paced thrills, and clever moments of fourth-wall breaking, this is a film designed to put you in a great mood. Grab some popcorn (and maybe some chocolate), settle in, and prepare for a ride full of surprises. It's best experienced firsthand-spoiler-free-for maximum impact.

A must-watch for fans of quirky, energetic storytelling with a lot of heart!
