Both a satire and an homage to 1980s pop culture and the music videos that shaped it, Tapeheads is a quirky, funny and intelligent tribute to the medium of music videos. Includes a fantastic soundtrack and great performances by a pre-Lloyd Dobler John Cusack and a pre-Andy Dufrense Tim Robbins. It should never have slipped through the cracks because it is an entertaining film that deserves to be remembered.
