In 1986, before headbangers were (ironically) hip, when camera crews were still a novelty worth cavorting drunkenly before, a dude from D.C. borrowed some gear from the local TV station where he worked and went down to the sports arena before the big Judas Priest show.
The rest is heavy metal history.
A favourite on the Nirvana tour bus, Heavy Metal Parking Lot used to circulate in lovingly fan-dubbed video tapes. Now this bona fide cult classic is finally available on DVD. It’s 17 minutes of heavily quotable, hilariously decadent, high-ly fashionable and oddly life-affirming rock and roll enthusiasm.
With extras like Neil Diamond Parking Lot, Harry Potter Parking Lot, a Where-Are-they-now doco, and a DVD approximation of a 10th dub VHS copy, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without. *Jean jacket not included.
