Rock’N’Roll Nightmare

by David Irons

A novelization of John Fasano’s 1987 film

On the back of the box

Rock ’n’ roll will never die. You might!

Heavy metal band Triton has one goal: get away from everything, lock themselves inside an isolated farmhouse, and record their new heavy metal album… But something evil is already waiting for them.

As the music gets louder, strange things begin happening around the house. One by one, members of the group are drawn into a supernatural battle as demonic forces begin to take control.

Rock ’n’ Roll Nightmare became one of the weirdest, wildest cult collisions of horror, heavy metal, comedy and low-budget monster madness, and now it is going to be a book!

This time, Hell comes with a guitar solo… and… puppets….

About the author

David Irons

Filmmaker & novelist

David Irons was the kid who went to his room to watch and read horror when his relatives came round. It paid off. When he left his room, he became an award-winning filmmaker and writer living on the south coast of England. His films, colourful and stylish in design, have won awards at the Cambridge Film festival, Las Vegas VIFF festival, and LA Independent Festival for cinematography, editing, writing, and directing. 7 Winters Alone – a sci-fi, horror short – was a winner in David Lynch’s 2014 Short Film Competition.

In 2019 David had his first novel, Night Waves, published, followed by Night Creepers, Polybius, and The Bloody Tracks of Bigfoot in 2020 – 2021 from Severed Press. Since then, David has become a Splatterpunk award-nominated writer for his ’80s summer camp slasher, Don’t Go To Wheelchair Camp.

The moral of this story is to be weird and stay in your room. It pays off in the end.

Just Perfect

The long, repetitive opening shots of the band in the van exist purely to pad out the runtime… And they are in the book just to pad the page length!
