Shout Factory is well known for their releases of cult TV shows and movies on DVD.  On Tuesday they opened the vault on legendary prolific low-budget director Roger Corman, in releasing Rock 'N' Roll High School and Suburbia.  It's the first two titles in Shout Factory's Roger Corman's Cult Classic series, and there's plenty more where that came from.

Penelope Spheeris (Wayne's World) wrote and directed 1984's Suburbia (clip above), about a bunch of punks in the suburbs who run away from home to live in squats.  For the most part, the film features non-professional actors, as Spheeris recruited street kids and musicians to play most of the punks in the film, including a young Flea.  The DVD has a commentary track with Spheeris and the theatrical trailer, amongst other extras.

The SunBreak has two copies of Rock 'N' Roll High School and Suburbia to give away.  Enter below for your chance to win a DVD set.  We'll be drawing two winners' names tomorrow at noon.
