This Is Spinal Tap : Cult Classic?

Cult Classic?

Had a couple of hours to kill and while channel surfin', and lo' and behold Ovation-channel had it on ... it's been years since I've re-seen it (half a dozen times?), and to me this hilarious parody will never get old. From Nigel complaining about the dressing room food to their exploding drummers, and not to mention Derek Smalls sporting a cucumber in his tights, the entire performance was/is the-hits-just-keep-on-coming insane!

And the scene in the flash back to their 1960's performance and as a band was IMO funny ... but was that Ginger Baker on the drums?!? And was that Roger Daltrey at the Smell The Glove release party?

Anyway after just over three decades is it a cult classic? With an "8" rating ... and some of the opinions in review I would tend to thing so. Too bad there isn't an "11?"
