Hanako, the exalted and introverted front woman of the horror punk band The Gesuidouz, is convinced of her genius. But only she is: Nobody comes to her eccentric concerts, nobody buys her album "Toxic Avenger Infinity War". The manager gives the quartet one last chance: "Move to the country and come back with a decent song!" The concept for "Smells Like a Zombie" is already in place: the future ultimate punk anthem must sound as if Johann Sebastian Bach had watched Peter Jackson's splatter classic BRAINDEAD with too many drinks! But the clock is ticking: Hanako's 27th birthday is approaching, and at this point, a rock legend has to be dead. THE GESUIDOUZ rocked the Midnight Madness at the Toronto International Film Festival and is now making us pogo. As eccentric and laconic as LENINGRAD COWBOYS GO AMERICA, as energetic as EX DRUMMER and as likeable as HEAVY TRIP.
