If you are a real The Donnas fan, you already watched that movie. Now, if you wonder why there is a special about a movie on a The Donnas Fansite, there is a real good reason for that; beside that this is a great movie, also The Donnas covered "Strutter", one of KISS' most famous songs for this movie, and let me tell you, it is a great cover.

Join Hawk (Edward Furlong, American History X, Terminator 2: Judgement Day) and his three best friends as they head out to pay their respect to the kings of rock, KISS. Part road trip, part coming-of-age comedy, part crazy ride through the 70s, this movie rocks and rolls all the way through!
