REVIEWS

Review by TheRohde (posted on 19-Jun-2007)

If you have fond memories of 80s metal and big hair, this is the documentary for you. There are interviews with big names and one-hit wonders along with fans. It is an interesting look into that whole lifestyle that sprang up in the clubs in LA. I have not seen it in years and fervently wish it were out on DVD.
