Response
This Is Spinal Tap was a modest success upon its initial release, suffering from, among other things, the failure of many viewers to understand that it was not a real documentary. Audience feedback cards from early screenings had comments such as "Too shaky. Get new cameraman." However, the film found greater success, and a cult following, after it was released on video. Many musicians can recite entire scenes from memory, and it is common to hear lines from the movie sprinkled throughout any gathering of two or more rock musicians.
