With Linda Manz, Dennis Hopper
"A genuinely alarming miasma of misplaced sexuality and rock ’n’ roll fetishism—Out of the Blue is basically a family drama with Dennis the Menace directing himself as the world’s supreme fuckup."
—J. Hoberman, The Village Voice
Just out of prison for drunk driving his truck into a school bus, bad dad Don (Hopper) returns home to the planet’s most messed up family: a smack-addict wife and a self-destructive rebel-punk daughter (Manz), whose mantra is “disco sucks, kill all hippies.” Dennis Hopper’s hurricane-force domestic tragedy is the 80s answer to Easy Rider; it follows troubled youth subculture to its frightening, screaming, self-annihilating extreme.
