CHAINSAWS WERE SINGING

CHAINSAWS WERE SINGING 

Directed by Sander Maran | 117 min | Estonia | 2024

Starring: Karl Ilves, Sarah Niils

Chainsaws Were Signing is an absolutely bonkers action-horror-musical-comedy B-movie epic from Estonia. Filled with buckets of gore, outrageously unhinged characters, random explosions, boundless enthusiasm, and toe-tapping original songs, this love letter to crowd-pleasing exploitation cinema channels the anarchy of Monty Python and the energy of early Peter Jackson (think Meet the Feebles or Dead Alive), for a one of a kind, decade in the making splatter-comedy-musical that you have to experience to believe. 

Join us for the Alberta premiere, and be among the first audiences anywhere to survive the film that has had festival crowds cheering with glee.
