Buckaroo Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers

Contest:
2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
-
A film that crossed multiple genres, Buckaroo Banzai (as it is commonly known) featured a hero who was the ultimate Renaissance man. Of his many skills, “Rock Star” was one, and his multi-talented associates were his backup band. Music was part of the film, but that was not necessarily what was remembered the most in this quirky cult film.
