Awesome reaction! I really appreciated that you were able to see the nuance in the film that existed past the excessive teenage rebellion. This movie took place in the mid 80's and was based off the directors actual life growing up in SLC so at least some of it is a true story. Not a ton of skateboarding at the time, skateboarding kinda died out in the early 80's and came back in the mid 90's with SoCal skate punk becoming popular. Growing up in a religiously oppressive city, I definitely had a lot of the same stories of anarchy and violence. The punk shows back in the day were totally brutal and nazis were a big problem because they preyed on the impressionable kids at the shows, but there were never more than fists involved. Rednecks and jocks would cruise by the front of the American Legion (where a lot of our shows were) and start fights too. There was definitely a pecking order. We all beat the shit out of nazi punks though. The shots with the acid trips arent totally what acid is like, its anywhere from super introspective circular thought to some cool visuals like trees looking like pinwheels and stuff. Sometimes you have a bad trip that turns a bad mood into a worse mood but most of the time it was just walking around staring at swaying mailboxes. Shawn was fucked up when they saw him on the street because 100 hits could cause long-term permanent damage. Everyone used to "know" a guy back in the day who took too much acid and thought he was a glass of orange juice but nobody knew him by name. Shawn is kinda similar to that. Also I think Bob breaks the mirrors because he doesnt like to have to confront himself and face things like his childhood and his father. He has no sense of home or family and is able to supplement that feeling when he is with his friends but when he is alone in the mirror he has to face that realization. I think thats why they show him breaking the mirror the second time, because it makes you realize the first time he did it it wasnt punk rock as much as it was a fight with himself. And you are right about the grunge thing too, when it first came out a lot of people around the scene just knew it as northwest punk, a region of punk like SoCal or East Coast punk. This movie came out right as I was graduating high school and really helped me realize that what I was doing was not sustainable and that I needed to take the experience and use it to better develop as a person. Now im an old dude fucking the system up from within. Thanks again for the reaction, I will definitely be watching it again in the future.

Rewatched this recently and it's even better than the first watch. how can you not love Steve-O ? It seems like a completely unique experience, and being a punk in the 90's is almost a damn art form. thanks again for requesting this.
