Description
In 1989, UCLA film students Russell Bates and Matt McDowell borrowed a 16mm camera, maxed out their credit cards and made a punk rock road movie about love, death, jerky, kidnapped newlyweds, 24-hour minimarts and a magical brainstem that promises immortality, featuring appearances by L.A. music scene icons including Redd Kross, Milo Aukerman of Descendents and Peter Case of The Plimsouls, with soundtrack vocals by Bob Forrest of Thelonious Monster. When the finished film could not find theatrical distribution, it instead became an underground bootleg legend. Now, after nearly four decades, it has been scanned in 2K from the original negative and is presented in both its Original Version and Producer's Cut, with three hours of all-new special features.
