This Is Spinal Tap Movie
A hilarious spoof documentary chronicles the ups and downs of the British heavy metal band Spinal Tap that tried to make it big in the United States 17 years ago. Once famous and now almost forgotten, the group, comprised of lead singer David St. Hubbins (Michael McLean), co-lead guitarist Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest), and bassist Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer), returns to the U.S.A. for a concert tour in support of their 12th album 'Smell the Glove'.
