Heavy Metal Jr. (2005)
From Stirling, Scotland comes a different kind of heavy metal band called Hatred. Heavy Metal Jr. (2005) is a hilarious look at this band by director Chris Waitt. The whole film is like one big gag.
The lead singer’s father is the band manager. He’s also a voice coach and loves to give the boys a few quick tips now and again (this guys was Tom Jones in another life). The band’s name gets misspelled as Hatrid in another scene.
Some clever editing has some senior citizens frowning and looking grumpy as the band performs a few numbers at a county fair. Funny film.
