Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Superunknovvn This little bootleg-movie takes you back to another era, when rock dinosaurs walked the earth and there was no difference between the looks of a guy and a girl. "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" is a hilarious short documentary that gives us an impression of what it meant to be a metal fan in the 80's. The movie starts in the early afternoon as the first people arrive at the parking lot of a concert venue where a Judas Priest concert is going to take place later on. They come, they see, they crank up the volume of their car radios and get wasted. The whole thing is extremely entertaining to watch and also makes you a bit sentimental. In the end, you'll have to wipe a few tears from your eyes and come to the conclusion that metal fans just aren't what they used to be in those days.

nsx5400 The film was shot at the now defunct Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland. This was the former home of the Bullets (now Wizards) and Capitals. It was torn down around 2002 and replaced with a shopping mall. When it opened, the Captial Centre was a state of the art facility - by the time the movie was made, it was THE place to see major acts (as well as stuff like pro wrestling and monster truck rallies) in the metro DC area. Heavy Metal Parking Lot is a great movie both for metal fans and for those of us who grew up in the DC area during the 80's.

Kristen Johnson (kristen-johnson2) When I read about this flick, it intrigued me as a heavy metal fan, and as a short and indie film fan.Unfortunately, it isn't exactly the laugh a minute I expected it to be.It runs for 18 minutes, a lot of which is "montage" shots. The actual interviews are quite amusing if only for the clothing, hair and language.Possibly the funniest thing is the people saying "Metallica are the best metal band"... funny because Metallica aren't a metal band any more.Keep an eye out for a Nigel Tufnel lookalike dressed in a zebra body suit, with a distaste for punk and Madonna.

zardoz12 Shot on video somewhere in West Virginia, "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" is a pointless look at the massive tailgate party that precedes a "Judas Priest" concert. The concertgoers live up to every stereotype of mid-1980s metal fans in their dress, automobiles, and behavior. Drunk rambling is the order of the day while making the "satanic hand sign" whenever anybody mentions one of the idiotic "big hair" bands of that decade. An interminable 30-minute parade of spandex-clad women, hairy men boasting "Kill Them All" T-shirts, and one Camarro after another. I got to see this film because Chris Smith's "Home Movie" was not long enough for Landmark Theatres' to charge $8 per showing.
