"spinal" chords

Rating: Null/10 (2 September 2011)

Rob Reiner, known for a while as Meathead, finally made his directorial debut with what is probably the most famous mockumentary of all time. "This Is Spinal Tap" (officially spelled Spın̈al Tap with a dotless I and umlaut-bearing N) depicts a really dumb heavy metal band singing mindless, head-banging music. On tour to promote their latest album, a series of thing go wrong for the band.
More recently of course, Christopher Guest has made a number of mockumentaries starring himself and band mates Michael McKean and Harry Shearer. Always really good ones. But things certainly started with Spinal Tap. Rock on!
