Will stop you in your tracks the next time you see a rock flyer, 10 March 2009
8/10
Author: larry-411 from United States

As someone who was part of the "punk scene" starting in the late 70s I can state that I was vaguely aware of the "rock poster scene" that existed then and still exists today. The film is fascinating in its illumination of what has been (and maybe should remain) hidden in the dark underbelly of the graphic art subculture. As a documentary it does its job admirably. But I found it quite humorous, particularly in the artists' sense of gravitas as well as the simplicity with which the art has been created. I almost felt as though anyone could do it, while at the same time time feeling that nobody could do it. And much like the subjects portrayed in the film, I can imagine seeing more and more each time it's viewed.
