Unavailable on home video for many years (except perhaps as a grainy, nth-generation VHS bootleg), Penelope Spheeris' seminal document of the young 1979-1980 Los Angeles punk scene includes chaotic live performances by now-legendary groups like Black Flag (with short-lived lead singer Ron "Chavo Pederast" Reyes), X (giving themselves stick-and-poke tattoos) and the Germs (whose unpredictable lead singer Darby Crash would commit suicide before the film's release) interwoven with talking-head interviews with teenage punks and, most entertainingly, older club owners trying very hard to describe a growing form of music they were clearly unprepared for. The footage of Fear's confrontational set would later grab the attention of John Belushi, who snagged the band a 1981 appearance on Saturday Night Live (and resulted in $20,000 in damage to the studio). - Tom Fritsche

The third (and seemingly final) installment in Penelope Spheeris' Los Angeles music trilogy, THE DECLINE OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION III follows not the punk acts of Los Angeles from 1996-1997 but their homeless teenaged fans. Musician interviews in this DECLINE are fewer but include interesting musings from Keith Morris from the Circle Jerks and Flea (credited as the "ex-bass player of Fear"). DECLINE III lives up to its title as Spheeris explores every facet of the gutter-punk life, from their damaged upbringings (nearly all were abused or neglected as children) to the self-destructive lives they lead on society's fringe (alcoholism, homelessness and run-ins with skinheads, among others). - Tom Fritsche

The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years is a documentary film directed by Penelope Spheeris about the Los Angeles heavy metal scene from 1986 to 1988.

朝鲜一座国家秘密工厂对美元的仿制度超过了百分之九十九，朝鲜特种部队首长车奇成，在之前的行动失去了妻子，因而对国家产生不满，决定带领一众手下脱北出逃。并且在走之前要抢走工厂最宝贵的伪钞模板。车奇正的手下，一个行动小组的组长林哲令（玄彬饰）率领自己的组员，与车奇正一伙发生了激烈交火。最后除林哲令一人幸存，其余工人和保安人员全部被杀害，其中就包括林哲令的妻子。 　　朝鲜军政高层下令必须将伪钞模板追回，而林哲令也下定决心天涯海角也要追杀车奇正为妻报仇。朝鲜情报部门得到情报，车奇正出逃之后，辗转中国几座城市最终逃到了韩国首尔。朝鲜军界高层借南北高层会谈之际，以随从身份带林哲令一同前往首尔，并通知韩国警方展开一次共助行动，一起抓捕车奇正。韩国警方对车奇正的真实身份和朝鲜官方的实际目的一无所知，于是派出打酱油的刑警姜镇泰(柳海真饰）协助林哲令，实则敷衍和监视朝方行动。此时车奇正和原朝鲜特种部队的手下已经全部偷渡到了首尔，敌强我弱力量对比悬殊，看似不可能完成的共助行动就此展开。@秀山鲤鱼
