That Darn Punk
The straight-to-video feature That Darn Punk was produced by a new film division of the Kung Fu record label, and its soundtrack features a number of punk-pop bands, some of whom are, naturally, signed to the label. Several songs were recorded especially for the film by bands like Nerf Herder, No Motiv, and the Vandals, while much of the material recorded by the label's own roster is exclusive to the soundtrack or at least previously unissued. Plus, there are a few cuts licensed from bands like Pennywise, Rancid, and Lagwagon.

The Worst Film Ever
Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
Beautiful, moving film.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
This was a very cool movie. The vandals are a very awesome band, and did a good job making this movie. I should also add that the sound track for the movie really rocked. I highly recommend getting it. This is a movie for any real punk fan!
At first I was kind of dissapointed with the video i bought for 15 bucks at a concert, with some real bad acting, vandals pretending to be another band yet still playing vandals songs, and a relatively slow pace. But all of the events in the movie start piling up on the main character (and viewer) and create such a sense of chaos that you want to keep watching to see what else worse could happen to Dirk. And when I felt there was no way to end this mayhem without just cutting to credits, there was that ending. And all was resolved and I was left a satisfied viewer then BAM I was shocked (if you've seen it you know what I mean) and something happened that was so totally un-Hollywood that it gives the whole viewing experience a punk rock feel. That was the punkest way to end the movie. Movie up to ending- 2/4 Movie with 'ending'- 3/4 whole movie- 4/4!! See it and watch through the whole thing! Although a lot of it seems a little too conventional and linear, once it was over I just wanted to go out and jump in a mosh pit!
All I can say is wow. From the storyline to the soundtrack. The cast were great especially Joe Escalante. It wasn't what I expected when I bought it, I can say is that it was better than my expectations.I loved this film and can't wait for Kung Fu's next film.
If you're into punk music and independent, low-budget films with originality, the movie 'That Darn Punk' has all the elements. As odd and quirky as some of the characters are, there are really people like them walking around who have not yet been committed to the local asylum. I've met them. Some of the acting could be better, but the main character, played by Joe Escalante of The Vandals, is very believable. The movie has a message and some good twists. It's entertaining with a great soundtrack and destined to be a cult classic.
