31 day movie challenge for the summer months - Day 11

 

The Green Room. A young punk band go to an out of the way venue to play a show and to their horror find out it's a venue beloved of nazi (nazi doesn't deserve a capital N) skinheads. Instead of leaving like smart people would do they stay and to double down they play the Dead Kennedy's classic nazi Punks Fuck Off. Afterwards they walk into the green room and discover what the crowd of cunts they just played for are really like. Minutes later they're fighting for their lives.

A brilliant film but a BRUTALLY violent one. Something happens to an arm in this that you'll never forget and it's always going to be sad watching a film starring poor Anton Yelchin. But it rocks. It has wicked tunes, and the ending is very satisfying. What more do you need?
