Punk Rock Films
Many people think Bill Paxton manifested one of the first depictions of punk in mainstream film, in a scene at the beginning of The Terminator. He's rude and crude, and he's got spiked hair and attitude, but he was relatively late to the party; punk rock had violently emerged almost a decade prior. Punk is a crude and rebellious form of music that started in 1976 with the release of the first Sex Pistols album, which ignited a revolution in culture, including music and film, with many films expressing punk rock values and ideas through their direction, soundtracks, characters and dialogue. Take a look at these films for a better, very entertaining (and often disturbing) glimpse at punk rock and the punk lifestyle of anarchy, squatting, rebellion, and heavy drinking and drug use. How many of these films have you seen???
