Maryland Deathfest is one of those festivals that pretty much every metal fan knows about… but what makes it so special? Why this particular festival? Pendragwn Productions are looking to clear these questions and so much more up with their kickass new documentary!

Welcome to Deathfest, the movie being made by the aforementioned film production company, is slowly but surely starting to take shape. The most recent development was a big one- their own website that will keep everyone updated and even drop some teasers from time to time like the one above. The site gives a pretty concise and accurate descrption of the festival and the planned movie:
Welcome to DEATHFEST is the story of the premier American metal festival, located in Baltimore, Maryland. The film gives a glimpse into the world of extreme underground music and the bands who have made the festival what it is today.
The concept of a film based on a death metal festival that's been around since 2003 is really exciting, especially given the enormity of the festival every year. There is currently no release date for the documentary.
