ConceptionEdit

Live Intrusion was filmed at the Mesa Amphitheatre in Mesa, Arizona, on March 12, 1995, while promoting Divine Intervention on tour. The Machine Head members Chris Kontos and Robb Flynn gave assistance to the band while performing "Witching Hour", originally recorded by Venom in 1981.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The video was released as a VHS (Video High Standard) through American Recordings on October 31, 1995. The video features live footage of Slayer and exclusive unseen footage of Slayer on and off the road.<ref name="rottentomatoes"/> The beginning of the video features a portrait of some of Slayer fans, including a picture from the mid-1990s, about a fan, who had "Slayer" carved onto their forearm.<ref name="Noisecreep"/> It was directed and produced by Phil Tuckett, with the audio recorded by Sylvia Massy.<ref name="rottentomatoes">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> On August 17, 2010, Live Intrusion was remastered and released as a DVD (Digital Video Disc).

Critical receptionEdit

Chris Beaumont of Blogcritics recommended the DVD to consumers, giving it three and a half out of five stars. He noted that the audio quality was "pretty strong," and allows listeners to clearly hear every chord, note, and word that the band outputs, while the crowd noise proves that it is a live video, but is not so loud that it distracts viewers.<ref name="blog"/> Beamount also said that the video's quality "lacks a lot of the polish that more recent recordings have," but he later said that he would rather see it in low quality rather than high quality.<ref name="blog">Beaumont, Chris (2010-09-31). "DVD Review: Slayer – Live Intrusion" (page 2). Blogcritics. Archived from the original on 2010-09-31.</ref> Chad Bowar of About.com also gave the DVD three and a half out of five stars. He noted that the video is in decent quality, but, due to poor lighting and shaky camera work, he considered the DVD to be "marginal."<ref>Bowar, Chad.
