Rock and Roll Re-Creation: 'Spinal Tap II: The End Continues' (2025)
from The Sleepless Cinematic Podcast · host The Sleepless Cinematic Podcast
As a bonus this week, Julian, Emilio, and Madeline gear up for Spinal Tap’s reunion in the new release “Spinal Tap II: The End Continues”. Released 41 years after the previously discussed “This Is Spinal Tap” (1984), this legasequel catches up with our hosts’ favorite semi-fictional heavy metal band. The group points out the impossibly high bar of the first film, and discusses whether or not the sequel is able to successfully callback to the original’s best moments without triggering Emilio’s fan service allergy. The conversation also leads the hosts to theorize about how Christopher Guest spends his downtime - is he bingeing Gilmore Girls, or is he on the deep web?If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.
