Turbonegro: The Reserection
Grafting gleefully perverse psychosexual humor with a bruising yet intricate blend of punk and hard rock, Turbonegro had earned a large and passionate following in Europe in 1998, and seemed poised to do the same in the United States when the band abruptly fell apart after their lead singer Hank Von Helvete succumbed to a heroin addiction and a nervous breakdown. In 2002, the band members persuaded a recovered Von Helvete to give the band a second chance, and the group set out on an enthusiastically-received reunion tour. This film follows the band as they pick up the pieces and resume the madness of denim-and-leather-clad life on the road. (Mark Deming)
