Slower than a snail in a coma Der Fan tells the tale of an obsessed girl following her pop idol to the point of insanity. I got a good laugh at the fashions of 1982 seeing them all again and our main character dresses (and looks a bit) like Nena of 99 Red Balloons fame. The music within is pretty dire though, even by 1980s standards (believe me, I was there, I know) although some here seem to have enjoyed it.
Our heroine eventually meets her idol and it results in a bit of rumpy pumpy, but shortly after she's basically told to get lost and the fun begins.
After cracking the pop star Richard Burke (known as "R") over the head with a heavy statue she cuts him up with bread knife and dumps him in a freezer. Finally shaving her head as some process of detachment from it all.
I must admit I had to fast forward a bit to get nearer the good stuff in this movie. The first hour is a real drag and pretty much nothing happens. Also during the bread knife scene you can clearly see the pulse in the neck of the "dead" singers body. At one point the tears on the girl look white too, like someone dropped milk on her to fake them. Strange lol.
The pay off is OK in the movie, but barely worth the effort of getting through the first hour. Just watch the first 15mins and then fast forward to the studio scenes. You really wont miss anything.
