Info

Punk's Dead, the sequel to 1999 cult hit SLC Punk, is a punk romp through the Utah hinterlands. Ross, Penny and Crash, young outsiders from different tribes, embark on a road trip to a huge punk show. Ross, 19, is the love child of Trish and Heroin Bob, who died before Ross was born. During their odyssey, and with the help of a healthy dose of drugs, alcohol and punk music, Ross shreds his darkly Gothic outlook and embraces life. His mother Trish, who raised Ross alone in her steam punk shop, discovers that he is in a crisis. She recruits his 'uncles,' Bob's old SLC gang, to help find him. When all collide at the concert, they are forced to deal with their unresolved relationships with Bob.

Punk's Dead: SLC Punk 2 Audience Reviews

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Moe Shunpiksure I was glad when it was over.I wonder why anyone would make such a listless movie.The characters each seem indulgent yet none are developed to the point where they provide any interest.The usefulness of a car ride as a sort of journey device is marginalized by the redundant and boring settings.The production value is mix and match mediocre.The narrator's bad acting is creepier than the creepiness of employing a dead narrator character.The climax of the story is not even anti climatic, but at least you know the end is near.
stormofwar To be honest, this movie isn't a sequel to the first film in any relatable sense. Some characters appear with the same names as some in the first film, there is some narration that happens, a goth kid goes to a punk show, gets hammered, has a revelation while getting the hell beat out of him, and end show? SLC Punk! was a surprisingly great film. This one? Not so much. The production values weren't good, the acting was uninspired, and the direction was horrible. The original was one of those films better left on its own. It was like they were pressured to make it at gunpoint and this was the post-mortem product.This is what happens when you try to recapture lightning in a bottle while standing in a half-full kiddy pool.
Kirstin Lucas This movie is phenomenal. It's not like the first one; however, it retains the ability to stand on its own. I guarantee you can relate to at least one, if not more, of the characters. James Duval's portrayal of John the (former) mod is an absolute delight! Ross's character, which could arguably be considered as one that isn't the standard definition of "punk", was a refreshing twist. I found it remarkable that Ben Schnetzer was able to channel a part of Heroin Bob's essence; his performance was incredible as well. James Merendino did NOT disappoint! I sincerely hope this movie goes down as a classic and is as well loved and received as the first. Thank you so much for your hard work in creating this masterpiece.
allIwantedwaspepsi Such is life that I will never be able to be 21 again and see SLC Punk for the first time. It's a movie I proudly watch with my kids. Punk's Dead is incredible. As an alternative Mom, I identify with Trish. I've got responsibilities but I still can't fit in. I think it's okay and my kids turned out okay. Punk's Dead is nostalgic, pays homage to SLC Punk and Punk Rock, I cried a few time and laughed a lot. The actors old and new are amazing. Hannah Marks reminds me of myself at her age and Ben Schnetzer is perfect, portraying a kid that grew up to fast. I like the different vibe between the kids who are just having fun and the adults bitterness.
