Review- Pump up the Volume DVD

Staff Writer: DL Mullan

4 1/2 out of 5 shovels
Remember the nineties? Grunge was on the radio. Christian Slater was hot. Red hot, in fact.

Pump up the Volume turned him into a megastar. Never heard of it? Then rent it.

The film may look like a crude-talking teen flick, but the movie turned out to be as important as some indie films of today. Free speech, pressure, perfection, the government, teachers, and other authority figures are not spared in this depiction.

An important voice especially in the high tech world of today.

Also, this movie introduced Samantha Mathis.
