HEAVY METAL PARKING LOT

*Dude. Or let's put it another way: Duuuuuuuude!!!! The much-dubbed VHS sensation Heavy Metal Parking Lot has made it to DVD. In 1986 indie filmmakers John Heyn and Jeff Krulik wandered around a Maryland sports arena parking lot with a video camera, seeking to capture footage of Judas Priest fans in their native habitat. Among their muscle cars and between sips of Budweiser (in a just world, Anheuser Busch would have underwritten this documentary), the feather-haired followers of Priest put on a show rivalling any entertainment occurring inside the stadium that night. *Bellowing their enthusiasm for all things related to leather-clad men with guitars, these fans are easy to laugh at for their drunken cluelessness, but are equally endearing for the way they represent rabid fandom in general. The DVD comes with spin-off parking lot documentaries featuring equally enthusiastic fans--of Neil Diamond and Harry Potter--and a "dub-o-vision" cut of the documentary replicating the experience of watching a 10th generation VHS copy. How metal is that!.
