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

1969年当苏联坦克开进布拉格的小巷中时，一群反叛的摇滚青年合作拍摄了这部60分钟的音乐闹剧，导演是一个FAMU的学生，影片拍完后就被禁直到1990年才浮出水面。 　　在这部传奇地下电影中，他们极尽讽刺搞怪之能事，以音乐和无政府主义的姿态对抗着捷克当局和苏联军队，影片在音乐表演的间歇穿插进一个个短小却火力猛烈的故事，片中包括了数支活跃在上世纪60年代末的布拉格地下迷幻摇滚名团，他们大多数都于70年代严峻的社会形势下而解散，甚至没有发行过一张唱片，而此片则成了他们唯一能看到的影像。
