Brute 1986


Following the shocking events of “Brute 1976”, “Brute 1986” picks up one decade later with Leather Kobra, a glam metal band, who are set to begin filming their latest music video in an abandoned Western town. Unfortunately for the band and their crew, the ultra-violent Birdy family has taken up residence nearby. When their paths cross, their video shoot devolves into a night of terror and bloodshed.

Bill Kaulitz of the band Tokio Hotel stars as Johnny and will also reportedly contribute original music to the movie.

Director Marcel Walz was quoted saying: "I'm an '80s baby- actually, a 1986 baby. I grew up obsessed with '80s horror classics like Halloween IlI, Friday the 13th Part VI, Sleepaway Camp II, The Burning, A Nightmare on Elm Street 4, and so many more. It's my favorite decade (alongside the '90s), and when we decided to make this movie, I knew we had to go all in."

Writer Joe Knetter was quoted saying: "I grew up loving the films and music of the 80s so getting an opportunity to create something that fits in that space has been an amazing experience. We had so much fun with this one and think the audience will see that on screen. Hair metal and gore... what could be better?"

Writer Joe Knetter and director Marcel Walz return.

It's said that while Brute 1976 was an homage to ‘70s horror cult classics The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes, Brute 1986 honors the new decade’s beloved exploitation slashers like Friday the 13th and Maniac all set to a glam rock soundtrack including original music by CRAZY LIXX.

This is a sequel to 2025's Brute 1976.
