Wild Guitar (1962)

One of those really bad movies that is Fun to watch.

[3/10 · 15 October 2005]

I never heard of this film till I bought it for a buck. The title has nothing to do with the film plot. More Frankie Avolon than Elvis, Arch looks like a hard nose punk but has a heart of gold. Songs don't fit, waded through the whole film looking for some connection to the title, no such luck. "Bud" (Arch) strapped on a guitar but played like Elvis did in his films ( He didn't). Seen this type of film hundreds of times. This movie is so bad, but so fun to watch. I needed relief from the comedy relief. Might have been a much better film without it. If you got some time to waste and can find the film on DVD for a buck like I did, watch it! Hey Arch I'm a FAN!
