Hunting Venus

The film follows Simon Delancey, a former pop star who is now a con artist. He is kidnapped by two fans of his eighties band, the Venus Hunters, who blackmail him into reuniting the band for one last performance. The comedic elements arise from the absurdity of the situation as Simon navigates his past and the demands of his enthusiastic fans.

With a cast that includes notable names like Jane Horrocks and Ben Miller, Hunting Venus offers a humorous take on nostalgia, fame, and the lengths fans might go to for their idols. As a TV movie from the late '90s, it captures the essence of that era's comedic storytelling, making it a quirky addition to any collection focused on television films of that time.
