Summary
"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.

Ampliamente considerada como una de las mejores películas del género "falso documental", ofrece una mirada hilarante dentro del mundo de una banda de heavy metal británica ficticia. Para la película se compuso un álbum completo de materia original, con éxitos como Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight
Es una película estadounidense de 1984, de Rob Reiner. Está rodada como un falso documental, acerca de una banda de heavy metal creada por él mismo y los actores del reparto. Ocupa el puesto 48 de las 500 mejores películas de todos los tiempos según la revista Empire.
This is Spinal Tap es la mejor sátira del mundo del rock más tradicional, principalmente de géneros como el hard rock o el heavy metal, que generalmente tendían a ser extremadamente solemnes y tomarse a sí mismos demasiado seriamente. Es muy graciosa ¡y rockera! ⚡🎸
La mítica escena del amplificador 'These go to 11' en 'This Is Spinal Tap' fue improvisada y tan icónica que inspiró cambios reales en la industria musical. Un clásico del cine sobre el rock ochentero y su cultura.
