"Detroit Rock City" is a film in which teen-age Kiss worshipers prove that
they will do anything, preferably anything nasty, to see the band they
love. The idea might have promise if it had even a trace of self-mockery,
but no such luck. Sample hagiographic dialogue: "You know, in 1973 Kiss was
opening for Blue Oyster Cult. One year later, Blue Oyster Cult was opening
for Kiss!"

 Nice to see BOC get a mention in a movie, even if it is a lousy movie, and
a derrogatory statement. ;-)  Then again, I guess BOC is no stranger to
coverage in lousy movies!
