I am a Kiss fan, have been since 1974. I know how to play every song on my guitar and they were my main reason for wanting to pick one up. I've stood by them through thick and thick all those years ago, even in the early 80's when they were going nowhere here in the states.
But this movie... (and I love movies!) it's a nightmare and embarrassment to see. I went to the theatre to see it and walked out afterwards, I was lucky, no one saw me leaving. I bought the DVD. Gene talks about himself as usual and promotes upcoming toys and ventures that he's working on. I know he likes himself, but WOW!
There are some funny bits in the movie, Furlong is on the giving end of those. His bit in the nightclub is very good. The rest of the cast is just over doing it to the point of going out of charachtor.
It's good to see Joe Flarety in a small role. Shannon Tweed is sexy as ever and so is The Hedgehog himself: Rockin' Ron Jeremy!
The film has it's good spots but they are far and few in between. I know some over obsessed fans like the "Trip" fella. They need help. It's good to rock and roll all nite, but some people take it too far.
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone cause it's a fan's only movie. There aren't many of us left either. I hope the next movie about the band (there's supposed to be a movie about the begining of the band's existance) is done with some respect to the fans.
This was worse than the teenage sex romps that are the rage nowadays. We should have gotten better. A lot better. Ciao
