Bula Quo!, also known as Guitars, Guns and Paradise,^[1] is a 2013 British adventure comedy film cowritten and directed by Stuart St Paul and starring Jon Lovitz, Craig Fairbrass, Laura Aikman and Status Quo musicians Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt. The film was expressly made to work as a tax deductible write-off^{[failed verification]} for the band Status Quo, and the shooting budget was part of what was owed to the UK taxman.

The film's production used to its advantage a scheme set up by the previous Labour Government of Gordon Brown, which allowed taxpayers to invest a certain amount of money in low-to-medium budget United Kingdom films as an incentive to expand the British film industry it and/or keep people working steadily on it.^[2] Although Bula Quo! was made primarily in Fiji it was classified as a UK production because of the use of a primarily British cast and film crew.^[3] Several other (technically) British films released at the time were made using this same tax incentives, including Hitchcock (2012) and Cleanskin (2012). Bula Quo! was a box-office disaster at the time of its release, and received mostly negative reviews from critics.
