Slipknot Unmasked: All Out Life
Himself
A unique and fascinating insight into the career and controversies of one of the most successful and contentious heavy metal bands of all time: Slipknot. The film combines new interviews, backstage access and an exclusive live session from the nine-piece group, performing six career-defining tracks at the legendary Maida Vale Studios in front of an intimate audience. The six tracks, one from each of the band’s albums, transport the group, acknowledged by many as one of the most extreme live acts ever, from their usual arena-sized shows to a uniquely intimate and intense setting. The film highlights the group’s phenomenal 25-year career, revealing how one of the most relentless and intense-sounding groups ever have struggled with drink, drugs, depression and the death of a band member, topped the charts, outsold their peers and picked up a Grammy along the way, whilst staying as bold, fearless and exhilarating as ever.

Slipknot: Call of the Wyld
Guitarist
In coveralls and masks they number 0 through 8 coz Slipknot are not like others. Frighteningly talented they are also just frightening. And you'd better believe it. These down tuned metal monsters have become modern anti-heroes in a gone to hell society. Band members DJ Sid Wilson, drummer Joey Jordison, bassist Paul Gray, percussionist Chris Fehn, guitarist James Root, sampler Craig Jones, beats Shawn Crahan, guitarist Mick Thompson, and vocalist Corey Taylor each bring a depth of talent and a bucketful of scorn to heap on unbelievers heads. All from Mid Western Iowa they are a nightmare come true for dumb asses in authority everywhere. Their off the wall stage act is the wildest on the planet and their music is a pile driving force riven with anger and bile. In this no holds barred program we take a long look at the band and a lost generation, the Slipknot generation. Contains much never seen before footage.
