Canon/Aesthetic Punk Movies

1. Repo! the Genetic Opera (Paris Hilton is iconic one of the most underrated musicals)

2. Suburbia (American Punk Film)

3. Sid & Nancy (og punk romance film)

4. Wild Zero (Japanese Cyber Punk film)

5. Repo Men (Same plot as Repo! but not a musical and one of the best movies ever!)

6. SLC Punk (Canon punk film, Any movie with Matthew Lillard qualifies as punk rock)

7. Trainspotting (British Punk Scene)

8. Burst City (Nowhere does cyber punk better than Japan)

9. Romper Stomper (Another British one staring Russell Crowe)

11. Jubilee (British Femme)

12. Ex Drummer (haven't seen this but was recommended and looks interesting)

13. Good Vibrations (Irish Punks)

14. 24 hour Party People (Takes you back to 1970s Manchester when the scene began)

15. Smithereens (a girl with dreams and no talent tries to make it in the dying scene)

16. Tank Girl (scifi punk fever dream movie)

17. Out of the blue ( 1980, nihilistic film about a teenage girl with shitty parents)

18. Suckerpunch (a feminine and highly aesthetic steampunk vibed masterpiece)

19. Rude Boy (1980, it's about the Clash)

20. Treasure Planet (animated steampunk film, child friendly)

21. Live Freaky Die Freaky (traumatizing alt fever dream claymation)

22. Hellboy (a true must watch and one of the best movie franchises ever)!

23. Van Helsing (steampunk action film)

24. Mystery Train (about a hotel, not a train?)

None of these movies are ranked in any particular order and they portray a wide variety of punk sub cultures but they are all aesthetic masterpieces. I would like to add more to the list as this list mostly represents Japanese and Euro/Western films, feel free to comment any films you've seen that you feel fit the vibe!
