Picture a massive cross between Phantom of the Opera, Faust, The Portrait of Dorian Gray, Sha Na Na, the Beach Boys, Alice Cooper, and David Bowie. It was the film debut for Jessica Harper, and yet another creepy part for Paul Williams. The direction is great, the editing (particularly the lip-synching) are mediocre, and the story is wonderful if you like strange. Well worth a look if you've never heard of it.
