Description

AMERICAN HOT WAX (1978) - Widescreen

Floyd Mutrix’s super rare, and highly entertaining movie based (loosely) on the life of Alan Freed, the controversial Cleveland DJ who helped unleash the horrors of rock'n'roll (some claim he actually coined the term) on an unsuspecting teenage American youth in the 1950s.

Criticized by conservatives for playing the "devil's music", hated by racists for promoting African American vibes, scandalized in the press, and persecuted by the law, Freed’s story is certainly worth telling - maybe even singing about - but after the films original release, American Hot Wax quickly vanished into nowhere, and (as far as I'm aware) was never officially released on either VHS or DVD. The odd copy that did surface now and then was generally fuzzy, full screen and not much joy to watch, which I think is a damn shame.

I am, therefore, sincerely pleased to share a very nice, uncut, wide-screen, copy of this rare and colorful bit of fun pop culture, featuring a crystal clear soundtrack of wall to wall music, along with some great performances by Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Frankie Ford, Screamin' Jay Hawkins and the Brooklyn Dreams.

Included is a sample.
