Dead in America

This is as close a depiction of "Punk Rock" on film you'll ever get. Its not that bad a horror movie either. Every shot, every line, every sound is horribly important. It should be mandatory watching for every high school student and they should only be allowed to listen to November Spawned a Monster by Morrissey for a week. On cassette tape. Not on their I-Pod. This should give them a beginning of an idea of what their up against. Technically, the film has its limitations but these actually work to the films advantage. It adds to the spirit of the film. Fogged film, audio peaks, scratched film, bad acting, unsecure sets and locations, small budget, and stuff. A real slice of Americana. They're dead, they're all messed up.
