Overview

“This Is Spinal Tap” shines a light on the self-contained universe of a metal band struggling to get back on the charts, including everything from its complicated history of ups and downs, gold albums, name changes and undersold concert dates, along with the full host of requisite groupies, promoters, hangers-on and historians, sessions, release events and those special behind-the-scenes moments that keep it all real.

Viewing Notes

So much history to this movie that I’d never seen that I guess it was inevitable that it wouldn’t live up to my expectations.

Still a great movie and still funny as hell.
