Meat Loaf: To Hell and Back (2000)
'Meat Loaf' Aday is een overgroeide jongen uit Texas, de zoon van een zachtaardige vrouw die sterft aan kanker en een alcoholische, gewelddadige vader. Gekweld door zijn vader en klasgenoten vanwege zijn omvang, gaat hij na de dood van zijn moeder op eigen houtje op pad, in een onmogelijke taak om zichzelf aan de wereld en aan zichzelf te bewijzen. Een toevallige auditie voor een musical brengt hem ertoe de krachten te bundelen met componist Jim Steinman, en samen schrijven de twee muziekgeschiedenis met het operarockalbum 'Bat Out of Hell'. Maar de demonen die Meat Loaf drijven, laten zich niet bevredigen door succes, en uiteindelijk moet hij met hen in het reine komen.
