The Violent Years

“I shot a cop—SO WHAT!” So say the girl gang thrill-killers of THE VIOLENT YEARS! Written by legendary Hollywood outsider Edward D. Wood, Jr. (PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE, GLEN OR GLENDA), this is the delirious story of Paula Parkins—a good-girl-gone-bad who leads her degenerate teenage hellcats down a path of gas station hijackings, pajama party orgies, and cold-blooded murder. From Wood’s patently deranged dialogue to the scene where the gang performs a “man attack,” THE VIOLENT YEARS is an essential exposé on crime, gender politics, and sweater-stealing. Remember: “This is a story of violence!” directed by: William Morganstarring: Various1956 / 65 min / 1.85:1 / English DTS-HD MA 1.0 Additional info: Region Free Blu-ray Restoration from the original 35mm camera negative Commentary track with filmmaker Frank Henenlotter and Ed Wood biographer Rudolph Grey Unseen footage from Ed Wood’s HELLBORN THE VIOLENT YEARS original trailer Gutter-noir trailers from the Something Weird vault Bonus m
