Skum Rocks! (2013)

Directed by Clay Westervelt

Overview

The unbelievable true story of the band that gained massive east coast popularity in the late 1980s despite having a complete lack of musical talent and ambition. A powerful PR machine built their fame, and soon their primary objective was to invent new and creative ways to get kicked off stage without actually playing. Narrated by ‘Alice Cooper’, Skum ROCKS!, is a genre-bending film described by some as a true-life ‘This is Spinal Tap’, and by others as an independent ‘Rock of Ages’. ‘Skum Rocks!’ chronicles the rise, fall, and return of this infamous band, giving new life to the tale of ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’.

Length 77 minutes
