Chronicles the history, ideology and aesthetic of Norwegian black metal, a musical subculture infamous as much for a series of murders and church arsons as it is for its unique musical and visual aesthetics. This is the first film to truly shed light on a movement that has heretofore been shrouded by rumor and obscured by inaccurate and shallow depictions. Featuring exclusive interviews with the musicians themselves, Until the Light Takes Us explores every aspect of the controversial movement that has captured the attention of the world.

Norwegian black metal musician, Varg Vikernes, is being blamed for bringing negative attention to the black metal scene in Norway because of some revealing interviews involving church burnings. When Vikernes decides to foil a murder plot against him, he falls victim to his own bloodthirsty self defense...

Satan rir media (‘Satan Rides the Media’) is a 1998 Norwegian documentary by Torstein Grude. The film covers the controversy that surrounded black metal musician Varg Vikernes in the early 1990s, who not only has been tied to a series of church arsons in Norway, but received widespread media attention for the murder of Mayhem band member Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth.

Varg Vikernes embarks on a spiritual journey back in time, to the Stone Age (around 30 000 BC) to a previous life. He sees the distant past through the eyes of his former self, and doing so understands the meaning of the forgotten bear cult rituals, that still influences the modern mind. He discovers that these age-old rituals are the roots to all philosophies, traditions and religions.

Interviews with central members of early Norwegian black metal bands about Mayhem, the early black metal scene and the crimes they committed.
