A high school boy and his friends want to see a KISS concert, but his mother finds the tickets, destroys them and leaves him at a religious school. The friends win tickets on a radio call in and have to rescue their friend.
I'm not sure that I even liked this when it first came out. There was something annoying about it that is hard to put a finger on. There are also plenty of funny scenes. My favorite is the priest eating psilocybin mushroom pizza. KISS was not exactly controversial or provocative because of music. They were just popular and well known. Queen played heavier and earlier. By the date in the setting of this film (1978), Motorhead would be around and playing much heavier. They didn't wear makeup or sell the wide variety of merchandise though. I rate this film tolerable.
