Alice Cooper - Road (Live at Hellfest 2022)

Inside a field at Hellfest 2022 in Clisson, France, Alice Cooper takes the stage for a night that plays out like a theater piece with guitars. Road presents Cooper in concert form, but the camera treats the arena as a stage and the crowd as part of the production. Cooper's persona dominates the night, while a tight band behind him, Nita Strauss on guitar with backing vocals, Chuck Garric on bass, Ryan Roxie and Tommy Henriksen on guitars and additional vocals, keeps the energy electric. The set design erupts with props, pyrotechnics, and costume changes that feel choreographed but spontaneous. The track list sprints through decades of hits, balancing winked humor with crowd anthems, all without revealing any narrative twists or surprises.

Directed by Thierry Villeneuve, the film captures a single Hellfest night as a vivid concert experience rather than a standard documentary. It foregrounds production design, live energy, and the musicians who power Cooper's stage persona.

Box office figures for Road are not widely reported since this is a festival era concert release. As a niche live video it relies on festival viewings, streaming, and physical sales rather than a broad theatrical run.

Critical reception centers on the spectacle and precision of Cooper's live act. The film treats performance as a communal event where fans become part of the show, celebrating decades of rock theater while keeping a brisk pace that suits a festival setting.
