My quick rating - 3.8/10. Pretty much a vehicle for gore and little more than that. Some pointless nudity as well. Maybe the Sid Vicious reference is because he was punk, and the idiots being slaughtered are goth? About the only connection I can make is that Sid was known for drug issues, not for smashing people with a giant hammer. The kills in this are violent in an amusing way. The hammer is gigantic, so when it smashes someone, it looks cartoon-like in the destruction of the body. Gives plenty of scenes where a standing person is just decimated into a pile of flesh and blood. Luckily for us, the goths break into the wrong warehouse to set up their "rave" party, since this gives us plenty of people to brutalize. The last scene is long and so poorly done that it is laughable. People are constantly running around in circles, doing everything possible not to get away so they can be picked off one by one. The acting if you want to call it that, is horrible and only serves the purpose of not being a video of a man in a welder's mask demolishing people for fun without a plot. The nods to some old school horror are also present, especially with the "Demons" inspired zombie chicks roaming around for absolutely no explained reason. If you're on a hunt for gore, then watch, but beyond that, this is pretty bad all around.
