Description
Released in 1984, This Is Spinal Tap redefined comedy with its deadpan humor, improvised dialogue, and uncanny parody of rock star excess. Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer embody band members whose amps go “up to eleven” but whose careers are spiraling down. The 4K Ultra HD restoration brings sharper visuals and richer colors, making every ridiculous stage prop and elaborate costume pop. Bonus features include commentary tracks by the band in character, deleted scenes, and retrospective interviews. This edition preserves the film’s hilarious edge while giving fans the best possible viewing experience, cementing its place as one of the greatest comedies ever made.
