April Exploitation/B-Movie Challenge #03


Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains (1982) is a movie I've been meaning to get around to for a while. Featuring early performances by Diane Lane and Laura Dern, The Fabulous Stains tells the story of Corinne "Third-Degree" Burns and the meteoric rise of her punk band The Stains. Produced by Paramount, the film originally did very poorly and was shelved but has in recent years become sort of a cult classic. I can't say I loved this movie, but it was definitely good. Great performances all around and an engaging plot as well as some deeper subtext about the price of fame had me glued to my seat throughout. 4 out of 6 beers.
