Plot Synopsis

Directed and executive produced by Tyler Measom, I WANNA ROCK: THE '80S METAL DREAM is a three-part documentary series that chronicles the story of '80s metal from the perspective of five young dreamers -- John Corabi (Motley Crue), Janet Gardner (Vixen), Vicky Hamilton (Guns N' Roses manager), Dave 'Snake' Sabo (Skid Row), and Kip Winger (Winger) -- who were all chasing stardom in that cutthroat world. Some succeeded, some failed, but each revealed an entirely new side of the metal genre. The series also includes first-person interviews with Dee Snider (Twister Sister) and more. The three 45-minute episodes include:

"I Wanna Be Somebody": As '80s metal sweeps America, five rockers set out to make it in the world of hair spray and spandex.

"Headed for Heartbreak": Metal has been taken to new heights. As our rockers become stars, they battle personal demons, sexism -- and even Congress.

"Smells Like Change": From country to grunge, the world's taste in music is changing, and every metal musician is fighting for survival. Some will make it, some won't ... but all will be changed forever.
