No brainer-- This is Spinal Tap

If your question is addressed to Americans, then I’d add The Holy Grail; if you meant American films, then I guess it wouldn’t qualify;-)

(...) Oh My Goodness! I have the Grail on DVD. Seriously, it's so choice. If you have the means, I seriously recommend it. Spinal Tap--not my forte, but 'Best in Show'--lovely. Maybe it was all the Canadians in it :) Dave K (21 years ago, 24-Oct-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(...) I confess that I've never gotten into Spinal Tap. I don't know why, but it just doesn't grab me. (...) Terry Gilliam is American by birth, so THG might technically qualify. Dave! (21 years ago, 24-Oct-03, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
