Plot

For most people, karaoke (in which participants sing along to instrumental recordings of popular songs) is a once-in-a-while pastime that's often accompanied by one or two drinks too many, but for others karaoke is a competitive sport, with national competitions that hold the promise of putting the winner on the ground floor of a career in music. Karaoke Fever is a documentary that explores the little-known world of high-stakes karaoke sing-offs, as a group of part-time vocalists set aside their families and day jobs for the evening to belt out their favorites, with a $15,000 purse and a record deal in the offing for the grand prize winner. Directed by Arthur Borman and Steve Danielson, Karaoke Fever was shown in competition at the 2001 Los Angeles Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
