Ok, so you have a budget of lets say... $5 in your pocket and you're bored. And hell, lets say you even have a video camera. What do you do?

Make a movie.

The "you can do it too" ideologies of punk have oozed their way into film. Perhaps, one can say that film predates punk in that there have always been directors making low budgeted b-movies with creative outputs (take a glimpse at Ed Wood's catalog of films).

This section will deal with films that have taken on the grassroots "punk" method and have received some sort of notoriety (since the span of films of this nature are a dime-a-dozen). We'll also take a look at the various films that have documented what became known as punk music since its all we really have for the full chaotic experience.

For now take a look at: The Punk Rock Movie Database
