It’s 1985 and Stevo (Matthew Lillard) is that rare animal: a punk rocker in the Mormon stronghold of Salt Lake City, Utah. Though he’s just graduated from college with honors, his life is a directionless roller coaster of rock shows, stealing cars, and nonstop partying with his buddy Heroin Bob (Michael A. Goorjian). But with the scene getting old and Stevo going nowhere fast, what’s a guy with blue hair supposed to do? Fueled by an energetic star performance by Lillard, a classic punk soundtrack, and kinetic visual verve, SLC PUNK! is the madcap story of one rebel’s search for a way to grow up without selling out.
