EXCLUSIVE Kickstarter reveal: Deathgasm 1.5 variant cover

The Deathgasm 1.5 variant cover goes hard in its retro coolness.

Cult classic Heavy Metal horror movie Deathgasm is about to be adapted into a retro-style video game from Bit Bot Media and FreakZone Games, with the video game and a Deathgasm graphic novel coming soon to Kickstarter, and today AIPT can share an exclusive look at a new variant cover. The cover is by cover artist Matthew Therrien, and it seriously shreds.

The Deathgasm 1.5: Director’s Cut will serve as a prelude to the highly anticipated film, while Bit Bot, Howden’s Metalheads Inc., and FreakZone Games are joining forces to develop a retro-style 16-bit side-scrolling Deathgasm Video Game. Backers can get early access before the game is made available to the public, and physical copies will be available for PS5 exclusively through the campaign. Fans can sign up on the Kickstarter prelaunch page to receive an email alert for both projects when the campaign launches.

“Between the events of DEATHGASM 1 and DEATHGASM 2 was a story that I needed to tell,” said Jason Howden. “The story was so visually epic, so gory, and so offensive that it could never be filmed without watering it down. Instead, we made it into a graphic novel: DEATHGASM 1.5. We’re stoked for fans to witness Brodie and Medina slashing demons and thrashing metal riffs, meeting old mates and an ageless evil that lurks in the shadows of a heavy metal-hating church!”

Check out the variant cover below.
