In return for signing over his soul (?!), Lemmy (Phil Ward) gets the sponsorship of drug-gang leader Tanas (David Marciano), the owner of the Bar Sinister to get music gigs for his band. Having done that, instead of advancing his music career, Lemmy and his girlfriend Angel (Lyn Levand) take drugs and zone out while gang related violence breaks out on every side. The music in this film is by Drowning Pool, Love Supreme, Angry Samoans, Trotsky Icepick and Angst, among others. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Phil Villarreal, Arizona Daily Star
The writing sinks into lazy characterization rather than character exploration, and the premise could potentially be viewed as some sort of right-wing homophobe fantasy in which promiscuous gays are slaughtered for their indiscretions.
