Rock 'n' Roll High School (1979)

A real cult movie directed by Allan Arkush and starring the legendary Ramones, the story loosely tells the tale of a southern Californian High School who's principal goals are to 'rock out' even in the face of their new stricter and more repressive principle and her 2 goofey sidekicks. Led by superfan Riff Randall the school embark on a mission to see the Ramones in concert (The Roxy), much to the Schools disgust! Campy... hilarious and totally charming this film is a whole lot of 80s fun. The Ramones are awesome especially Dee Dee Ramone who in one scene is seen playing his bass in the shower! Dee Dee was notoriously hospitalised over the course of the shoot and because of his terrible acting had his lines axed to just 2! They're absolute beauties though! This film is great fun and a must if you have any interest in the Ramones...
