SLC Punk (1998)

In the heart of America's most devotedly religious city, Salt Lake City, Utah, two unconventional heroes, Steve-O and Heroin Bob, blaze their own trail. These two anarchists, reminiscent of the punks that once roamed the streets of NYC and the UK in the 80s, are seen as outlandish oddities in their conservative homeland, often mistaken for devil worshippers by the local populace. As autumn descends upon 1985, freshly minted college graduates Steve-O and Heroin Bob decide to stage their rebellion in an unexpected way - by refusing to use their educated minds and instead, continuing their endless party. Their days are spent in a whirlwind of chaotic revelry, with the narrative capturing their routine in a raw, unfiltered light. They navigate three raucous parties, a frenzied concert, and a volatile clash between punks, rednecks, and others, creating a tableau of their lives that's as real as it is wildly entertaining. Yet, amidst the anarchy, tension begins to seep in. Steve-O finds himself under the relentless pressure from his father to attend Harvard Law, while Heroin Bob embarks on a new romantic journey. Moreover, a stint in the hospital for Bob adds a layer of vulnerability to their rebellious facade. As their world begins to teeter on the brink of change, Steve-O wrestles with a growing doubt in his belief system and a nagging fear that their golden era of rebellion might be reaching its end. As he contemplates moving on, a startling realization looms - could he, the emblem of anarchy, be a poser in his own narrative? SLC Punk (1998) is a vibrant, gritty exploration of youth, rebellion, and the startling reality of self-discovery amidst chaos.

SLC Punk is a comedy movie featuring Matthew Lillard and directed by James Merendino.
