"Punk Vacation (1990) is a low-budget action/exploitation film about a biker gang of "punks" who terrorize a small California town, leading to a violent conflict with the locals after they murder a diner owner."
"Inept punks (who have got the look right, but who lack the attitude) kill an inept diner owner and incur the vengeful wrath of his inept daughter, who ends up captured and tied to a tree, leaving the inept sheriff and his inept deputy to save the day in a film that is. . . well, generally inept! But that is also a recommendation for fans of groan-inducing dialogue, goofball drama and shoddy action scenes. Any film about punks that fails to feature any punk music has got to be worth watching for a laugh, and Punk Vacation does not disappoint in that respect."
"A peaceful California town goes bonkers when a punk gang kills the owner of a diner who was just defending his daughter, leading to a battle of redneck vs. punks. If you grew up in the 80's or wish you did, this is a decent way to spend your time. The music, the clothes, the bad acting. This ticks all the boxes."
"It is exactly what I expected it to be🙂 Missed out on the slipcover unfortunately."
"Synopsis: A group of punks, led by babe Ramrod, are on vacation in a small town when the coke machine steals $0. 40 from one of their members. They are none-too-pleased about not only this obvious thievery but also the shopkeeps reaction to their request for a refund. While hassling the store owner the punk who lost his money kills him and gets injured in the process. Lisa, the daughter of the recently deceased, wants revenge and asks for the help of her deputy boyfriend. He wants to do things by the books but his hand is forced when Lisa gets abducted and soon it is Punks vs Law & Townsfolk in an all out battle. Review: The Sheriff is unhinged and I was loving every single word that came out of his mouth but this feels like a missed opportunity and should have either gone whole ham or played it way more straight edge. I think I would have preferred less silliness (minus the Sheriff of course) and more of a straight forward Punks VS Normies tale. Carnage Count 2/5 Sleaze Score 1/5"
"I watched this one many times on late night cable as a teenager!"
"Enjoyed the movie, gotta see Nomad Riders."
"Essential purchase for all hardcore collectors. I viewed this film on the Punk Vacation Vinegar Syndrome Blu-ray Limited Edition physical media release and it is the same great premium level of packaging and presentation that you’ve come to expect from the generic releases of this boutique label. No other brand beats Vinegar Syndrome at the cardboard game and this great slipcover is no exception to the consistently fantastic artwork and component quality this company produces. For my full detailed review of Punk Vacation, see my entry on Letterboxd: @M4N14K"
"Unique biker film that includes an even better film entitled “Nomad Riders”. I’d recommend this classic VS release."
"I'll buy anything from the eighties about punks. It was great"
