De skrigende halse

Being made on a small budget, and with fairly unknown actors (bar one or two), the movie quickly outgrew any expectations it had before release. It was instant fame, mostly due to the excellently chosen casting. De Skrigende Halse takes place in an underground Punk miljeu, where a band is desperately trying to make it big. After a fiasco concert, in order to avoid confrontation, the guitarist claims he has a terminal illness. The local conman/drug dealer/record producer, Djarnis, decides to make a commemorative Vinyl recording with the band. The sudden fame, but also the consequences of his lie, causes unwanted problems for Ronni, and without much effort, he is in a world of trouble.

The mood and the excellent acting in this film, makes it cult. It is one of Søren Pilmark's most well known roles, largely due to his manic projection of Djarnis, who is a control freak and a thoroughly unsympathetic person. The film is definitely worth a watch, if possible to find with English subs at all.
