* ItSucksToBeTheChosenOne: Nathan is pulled through the wringer in this movie. He is tasked to write and perform the "Song of Salvation" that will save the planet from [[BigBad Salacia]], but neither he or his bandmates know ''how'' to do it -- only that if Dethklok performs it wrong, Salacia will win and the planet will turn into an apocalyptic HellOnEarth. The trailer shows scenes of him being wracked with symptoms of intense PTSD, such as lack of sleep (Nathan talking to Offdensen completely bleary-eyed with shaking hands), involuntary flashbacks (the trailer [[ScreamerTrailer showing sudden images]] of the events of ''The Doomstar Requiem'' in the beginning), and creative burnout (Nathan struggling to write song ideas, with various words scribbled out in his notebook). At one point, the trailer briefly shows Nathan lying prone on the ground with his microphone, implying he collapsed on-stage during a concert.

%%No citation* * ColonyDrop: The Doomstar is falling closer to the Earth as time goes on. [[spoiler: Project Falconback is revealed to be a giant superconductor meant to act as a magnet to drag the star close enough for Salacia to absorb four spirits from another plane to achieve his full power.]]
* DarkerAndEdgier: The film has a more serious tone than most of anything that ever came before for ''Metalocalypse'', especially in its later half. There's still comedic moments such as [[TheFunInFuneral
Dethklok has acting like a fussy family at Ishnifus's funeral]], but generally the film plays the story straight and takes the threat to write the world seriously with only occasional moments of banter.
* DemonicPossession: General Crozier and Murderface both continue to suffer possession from [[BigBad Salacia]] after ''The Doomstar Requiem''. However it is established at the start that Salacia can only possess one person at a time, leaving the other free to act normally. [[spoiler: Later Crozier discovers that water is able to expel his spirit and end the possession completely]].
* EmotionalRegression: Toki between the intro and the funeral scene had regressed to the mindset of a bratty little kid due to the trauma of being kidnapped and tortured at the end of season 4. He also seems to be wearing earmuffs to avoid being overstimulated. He's back to normal by the time the band reaches Dais Keep.
* FaintInShock: Nathan collapses during their reunion show when pyrotechnics trigger memories of when they were possessed by the Doomstar during Toki's rescue.
* TheFunInFuneral: The Church of the Black Klok is trying to hold a funeral for Ishnifus after he saved the band during Toki's rescue. Nathan is drunk on wine while also taking Xanax and coffee, breaking pots on accident, and trying to propose to Abigail. While at the same time Pickles plays the role of a mother being run ragged trying to get Murderface to turn his phone off, Toki to stop licking the pews, and getting Skwisgaar to take his brother to the bathroom.
* GondorCallsForAid: [[spoiler: In addition to stopping the Doomstar from raining metal on the planet,

to:

%%Zero Context Example* ThePowerOfRock* ThePowerOfRock: Naturally for ''Metalocalypse'', the band must use their music to save the planet. One of the driving elements of the story is that Nathan must write the lyrics to the Song of Salvation, which can prevent the Doomstar from destroying the planet. [[spoiler: He fails at first due to feeling isolated from all of his loved ones, but gets it right after a rock talk from Pickles. Notably it seems to be that ''only'' the lyrics are what make the Song of Salvation work. Pickles mentions at one point they have music ready to go, they just need Nathan to sing his piece over it, and the backing music for ''Aortic Desecration'' and the real Song of Salvation are completely different.]]
* PhysicalGod: [[BigBad Salacia's]] goal is to merge with the Doomstar to achieve his full power. [[spoiler: He succeeds and comes within a hair's breadth of total victory. But Dethklok and their fans use their own power to push him over the ocean. Salacia taunts them by saying only a god can kill a god. Right after, the Whale Prophet confirms their godhood by surfacing from the abyss and [[EatenAlive devouring Salacia]].]]



%%Zero Context Example* WrapItUp

to:

%%Zero Context Example* WrapItUp* TimeCompressionMontage: The film has a musical montage after its opening that establishes various aspects of the plot such as Nathan being treated for PTSD, the ArcWords of "Fist or the hand" being shown through visuals, Dethklok having [[GroupieBrigade an army]] of 60,000 Klokateers, and the [[PracticalVoiceover public media]] insisting Nathan doesn't have what it takes to produce good music anymore and should step down before the economy collapses. It also serves to put an undetermined amount of time between the intro set at the end of Season 4 and the actual time of the movie.
* WrapItUp: After the original series was cancelled in 2015 and several fan campaigns failed to get a proper finale greenlit at the time, this film provides a conclusive ending to the story of ''Metalocalypse'' a decade later. It picks up immediately where ''The Doomstar Requiem'' left off and only stops [[spoiler: after the Metalocalypse has happened, been stopped from destroying the rest of humanity, and [[BigBad Salacia]] at his full power is KilledOffForReal by [[ThePowerOfFriendship the band and their fans]] sending him to be eaten by [[PhysicalGod the Whale Prophet]].]]
