Audience Member So bad it's almost good, almost. Clunes is alright in this but Neil Morrissey.. what the hell? lol and the two fans are so annoying! Other band members were Danny Webb, Mark Williams and Ben Miller. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member I have a copy to trade. Or you can make a small donation to cover materiels / time etc. £3. IM me or email me dvd247@mail.com if interested. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny, good and clever Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a very odd, but incredibly endearing and entertaining film. Campier than a row of tents, it's obvious from the start that the guys made this film with the purpose of having fun. The plot is crazy, borderliniing on ridiculous, and the characetrs are insane (one quite literally), but there's no way to measure the heart in it. The feel of the eighties and all the references are wickedly nostalgic and tongue-in-cheek, and the humour keeps bubbling to the fore all the time. Once you get to the end, even the cheesy hit song won't sound too tacky, because you've actually anticipated it enough to like it, no matter what.
