Originally formed amidst the chaos of the 1970 Kent State anti-Vietnam War protest killings, the not quite new wave band Devo scored a hit with "Whip It" and gained mainstream success with their message of societal "de-evolution."

14 short films by 14 different filmmakers, from the music of Stan Ridgway.

Several factory workers finish their day at work and get into a car. They drive to a club where they perform the song Secret Agent Man as a rock quartet. A man with a mask of a child named Booji Boy runs into a building where his father, a man named General Boy is waiting. Subsequently, a man gives a lecture by song on the subject of devolution.

Part concert film, music video collection, and propaganda piece, The Men Who Make the Music was DEVO's first home video release. Features live footage from the band's 1978 "Duty Now for the Future" tour.

This collection of short films represents a hint of the tectonic shift in the underground film world in connection with the punk rock “movement.” Restored from original negatives, it showcases the reasonably well-known alongside the extremely rare, from music shorts to impressionistic documentary.

Guerrila filmmaker Krulik bring us his films of the last decade in one handy package. Features "Heavy Metal Parking Lot," its sequel "Neil Diamond Parking Lot," "King of Porn," "Mr. Blassie Comes to Washington," "I Created Lancelot Link", and "Ernest Borgnine on Tour."
