Probably one of my favorite movies, even if neo-nazism sucks. but its amazing and if you can stand swearing, racial slurs, and some grusome scenes watch it now. Its amazing in character development.

heres a pic of derick. He's the protagonist (anti-hero). You will see that he reforms if you watch the movie.

*spoiler. (for those that haven't seen it) Highlight.
the original script had derick becoming a skinhead again.

it is highly racist and has high verbal language. But, since you guys like art and music you guys will probably look at the symbolism of derick. That to me is the message people should be looking at.

Yeah, my dad is Jewish, so I doubt this will really change my opinion, and turn me into a nazi, but I think it sounds interesting. Verbal language, isn't a big deal to me. >>;

the story centers around derick. Derick is a normal kid growing up with a racist fireman father. His father is killed by getting shot by a black drug dealer while putting out a fire. Anyways Derick then becomes a nazi skinhead. He then goes to jail (if you've watched you've seen why) and joins Aryan Brotherhood, gets raped by thus brotherhood and becomes a black guys friend. He stops being a nazi skinhead. He gets out and finds that his brother has become a skinhead. Thats the basics, but you still must watch it for the details. its amazing.

It was an instant favorite of mine when I had first seen it, but like no one else had ever heard of it.

Omg, I saw this movie today, and it is the absolute best. T__T

The ending was the best. <3
