Hard Core Logo is a fake-documentary about the fake punk band Hard Core Logo. The cast of Hard Core Logo includes fan favorite Callum Keith Rennie as Billy Tallent and Hugh Dillon as Joe Dick. The film was written by Noel Baker (who also wrote a "making of" book called Hard Core Roadshow, which fans have mined for behind the scenes gossip) and directed by Bruce Macdonald. The film was based on a novel by Michael Turner; there is also a graphic novel of the film and a "soundtrack" of covers of the film's songs by real Canadian bands that pretends to be a tribute album to the "fake" band.
