most modern metalheads have zero idea how much this movie meant
For like 1 or 2 years I seen this every Saturday, plus sometimes went to see the AC/DC movie or Pink Floyd's The Wall move
it was dumb, but bought acid from the pinball arcade nearby too
I was blown away after I learned Jimmy Page when he was in Toronto, would sit in the projector 's booth, and watch us at The Roxy every week we were spazzing out and yelling shit the screen like the bike messenger "put the seat back on faggot" or when Peter Grant was onscreen "asshole" the fat black guy selling bootleg merch "Bubba!"
I'm laughing at kids on other forums who are trying to tell me that speed/thrash/black/death metal wasn't all lumped together back in 1984. They don't know cuz they weren't there.
