About the Film
This film earns “cult status”: music.terrorverlag.de
Berlin daily newspaper Der Tagesspiegel called it “the ultimate conspiracy film”. Upon its release on DVD, Stefan Dabrock concludes: “Although it doesn't entirely gel, GUITAR MEN is an entertainingly absurd B-film homage with great locations and some good scenes”. Cinefacts writes: “Tough contract killers and international secret organizations in a murderous fight for a relic which is much more than just a simple instrument. The no-holds-barred hunt for the King of Rock’n Roll’s guitar leaves a trail of violence and death in its wake.”
