疯狂摇滚乐

This obscure 1983 comedy centers around a massive New Year’s Eve rock concert held by an independent booker that’s being sabotaged by an unscrupulous mega-promoter. Malcolm McDowell is British rocker-prick Reggie Wanker, whose head is so far up his ass, he can count all the M&M’s he’s eaten that day. Lou Reed plays a recluse folk singer who hasn’t left his house in six years but decides to make an appearance at the event. What seals it for this writer is legendary punk wiseguy Lee Ving as Nada lead singer Piggy. He’s totally typecast: Ving raises hell, signs his contract with a bloody headbutt on a car trunk, and turns in an ass-kicking version of Willie Dixon’s blues standard “Hoochie Coochie Man” (Fear perform the song on the soundtrack; other members of the band appear briefly in the film.) while demanding people dive off the balcony (“Come on! Jump on my face!”) And forget Netflix: you can watch the whole movie at the link above!
