The world’s best fake band has never really called it quits. But, they haven’t had another full length movie since their 1984 breakthrough, This is Spinal Tap. The original, which holds a special place in my heart, as I am sure it does for many; wasn’t the instant classic people make it out to be. It certainly was received well, but didn’t make its cult status right away.<\/p>\n

41 years later, Rob Reiner, Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer have suited up again for a trip back into Tap. Can their history of brilliance remain intact for another journey into this Hell Hole?<\/p>\n<\/ins>\n

Spinal Tap II : The End Continues : Forty-one years after the release of the groundbreaking mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, the now estranged bandmates David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls (Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer) are forced to reunite for one final concert. Spinal Tap II: The End Continues also marks the resurrection of documentarian Marty Di Bergi (Rob Reiner), who once again tries to capture his favorite metal gods as they contemplate mortality–and the hope that their 12th drummer doesn’t join them in The Great Beyond. Joined by music royalty Paul McCartney and Elton John, Spinal Tap wrestles with their checkered past to put on a concert that they hope will solidify their place in the pantheon of rock ‘n’ roll.<\/p>\n
