One of my favorite rock and roll related cult movie. (along with Rocky Horror Picture Show and Hedwig And The Angry Inch).

The Rutles of Hard Rock.

-"These go to eleven!"

Stonehenge part had me in tears.

This Is Spinal Tap is extremely funny. It nails the rather difficult mockumentary style by having a variety of amusing characters to follow. More importantly, there's not a weak character in the huge cast, although there will certainly be favorites. Reiner directs with a restrained style that fits with the documentary tropes on display here, but he along with his editing team knows exactly when to cut to make a joke sing. This Is Spinal Tap is shockingly enjoyable, thanks to a tremendous cast while amusingly playing with established filmmaking styles. B
