Half-Cocked (1994) watch online

Half-Cocked is a cult music road movie, made in 1994 in Louisville, Nashville and Chattanooga. The movie tells the story of a group of high school teens who steal a van full of music equipment and pretend to be a band, called "Truckstop" (played by the band Rodan) in order to stay on the road. When the band starts playing gigs, their sound is largely inconsistent and incoherent, however, over time, the band becomes increasingly competent in their musicianship. The film puts much emphasis on the indie/alternative rock subculture.

Many notable indie rock bands, such as Rodan, Polvo, Grifters, Freakwater, Versus, Slant 6, Unwound, Helium, Sleepyhead, Crain, and Ruby Falls are featured in the movie. Members of Rodan and Grifters play in the movie as well as acting. It had a small run on VHS and was unavailable for years until its 2007 re-release on DVD. A soundtrack of the movie appeared on Matador Records.
