Of his movie Letts wrote;
Every generation needs it's own soundtrack. In 1977 punk rock was it. It inspired some people to pick up guitars, I was inspired to pick up a movie camera... It was all so new, I realised it wasn't about being just a fan, it was about getting involved... A good idea attempted is better than a bad idea perfected.
The Punk Rock Movie was released on video in 1992 by Studio K7.
