Everyone wants a friend called Steve-O. Especially one with a 6-inch gravity defying electric-blue mohawk. Everyday while I slave away at my cubicle, someone down the hall having more fun than I am yells out "STEVE-O!!!!!" with ear-splitting bravado.

Many times I have run out into the hall for a glimpse of the elusive figure who bears the same name as one of my favorite movie characters, and every time I am met by an empty hallway. I can't figure it out. I also cannot get this slow motion vision out of my head: me and Steve-O jumping around the mailroom in our Doc Martens, listening to the Misfits and sending packages to Japan.

Whoever this Steve-O character is in my workplace, he must deserve the daily worship he gets. I can only hope to be quick enough on my feet one day to catch him. Until then, I just want to watch 'SLC Punk' until my eyes bleed.

For those of you who haven't seen this movie, please save yourselves now and obtain it. Matthew Lillard plays the infamous Steve-O, perhaps the greatest character to ever depict a punk struggling for his cause in the confines of a dead city. The music is terrific, the story line engaging and the characters stick with you.

Devon Sawa plays an acid head who takes one hit too many and accuses his mom of embodying the devil. Michael A. Goorjian plays 'Heroin' Bob, a needle fearing softie with a penchant for punching mirrors and creating new forms of gangrene. Then there's Mike ('How I Met Your Mother's' Jason Segel), the punk rock botanist who kicks the window out of a cop car and breaks his own cuffs off after taking a baseball bat to car windshields. Christopher McDonald (Shooter McGavin from 'Happy Gilmore') plays Steve-O's dad, a smart ass lawyer who ultimately adds to his son's overall punk movement/awakening. And last but not least, Summer Phoenix as Brandy, the delicious little uni-browed sprite who questions Steve-O's fashion attempts and invades his hollow soul.

Phew.

You'll laugh, you'll sing, you'll cry. You'll want to buy steel toed leather boots and hair dye. And who knows. You might just start the next revolution. But you have to see this movie regardless.
