This Is Spinal Tap (30th Anniversary Steelbook Edition) [1984] [Blu-ray]

A true cult classic, and frequently named as one of the funniest films ever made, This Is Spinal Tap is a fly-on-the-wall look at the world’s loudest heavy metal band, filmed by documentarian Marty DiBergi (real life director Rob Reiner, Stand By Me, When Harry Met Sally).

Opening with the band’s sold out New York gig (venue capacity -100) and ending with their riveting performance at a Santa Monica amusement park puppet gallery, This Is Spinal Tap combines interviews, backstage footage and live performances–including classic Tap tunes like “Big Bottom” and “Hell Hole”–in a film that is nothing short of phenomenal. Along the way you’ll get acquainted with core members David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean), Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest, Best in Show), Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) and every drummer who ever lived–and died–for this renowned rock band. Reiner’s first film, This Is Spinal Tap will live in history for future generations as the best rock ‘n roll spoof ever made.
