That bonkers action film starring Status Quo is finally here – take a look at Bula Quo!

They’re old! And they play guitars! And they’re old!

Eoghan Doherty

Amazing tagline alert: “It started with guitars… and ended with guns.”

That’s right film/music/old people fans, everyone’s favourite boogie rock band are back with their first ever feature film, their latest album and their 100th single – all entitled Bula Quo!

Bula Quo! stars Staus Quo legends Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt as themselves and tells the story of the two men being forced to go on the run after witnessing a mafia murder in Fiji.

I suppose, if Arnie and Sly can still star in a Geriactioner then why not these lads?

In fact, don’t even answer that question.

If you’ve got time you should definitley take a moment to have a look at the film’s amazing Facebook page here. In fact, even if you don’t have time to look at it, you still should.

Irish screenings are limited but the film is definitely being shown at Dundrum cinema this Friday evening. Fear not though folks, an Indian-based sequel is supposedly already in the works so we can look forward to a Quo double-bill at some stage in the future.

Check out the rockin’ trailer below – Twenty Wild Horses couldn’t drag us away from this film if they tried (crap Status Quo song reference).

Wonder who they got to do the soundtrack?
