Stunt Rock

STUNT ROCK-1980-Real life Australian stuntman Grant Page stars as himself. After doing many high profile, death defying stunts in his native country he comes to America to work on a TV series. Along the way he meets up with an '80's metal hair band called "Sorcery" complete with screeching lead singer and masked keyboardist. They do a weird "good wizard vs. bad wizard" act when they perform and seem more inspired by Spinal Tap than Led Zeppelin. Page also hooks up with actress Monique van de Ven (playing herself) and a reporter (Margret Gerald). Though the reporter and TV series are fictional this is partially a overview of Page's career and includes scenes with some of his work (like MAD DOG MORGAN) while also highlighting the easy to hate band.

Director Brian Trenchard-Smith worked on THE MARTY FELDMAN SHOW before making movies like ESCAPE 2000, BMX BANDITS and DEAD END DRIVE.
