This is Spinal Tap
- Rating:
- Director: Rob Reiner
- Starring: Spinal Tap
- Details: US / 83 mins / (18).
Rob Reiner's parody of the on-the-road rock documentary is a cult classic. Following the fortunes of English rockers Spinal Tap as they criss-cross America promoting their new album, 'This Is Spinal Tap' mocks every rock excess cliche in the book but still manages to remain sympathetic for the bumbling rockers themselves. Hilarious.
