Uncle Peckerhead is a scrappy, blood-soaked horror comedy about a three-piece punk band that goes on tour with a man-eating roadie. Bloody Disgusting called it “laugh out loud funny and gruesomely gory,” and the film currently holds 100% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, where it has steadily grown a devoted cult following since its release.
Written and directed by Matthew John Lawrence (Bloody Axe Wound), the film was entirely self-funded, powered by favors, friendships, and stolen energy drinks. Shot across Philadelphia, Brooklyn, and Central New Jersey, Uncle Peckerhead is a love letter to underground scenes, made by local filmmakers, punk musicians, and comedians on a shoestring budget and a shared belief that the best horror comes from the margins.
Five years later, the movie isn’t just being revisited. It’s being reclaimed, loud and in person, the way genre films and punk shows were always meant to be experienced: together, in a packed room, with the volume turned all the way up.
