Deathtripping is an illustrated history, account and critique of the "Cinema Of Transgression," providing a long-overdue and comprehensive documentation of this essential modern sub-cultural movement and its roots in the New York art/rock and post-punk underground film scenes. It is a movement formed around the manifesto written by filmmaker Nick Zedd. The loose-knit group of underground filmmakers included Richard Kern, Tommy Turner, Lydia Lunch, Beth B, Cassandra Stark, Joe Coleman, and David Wojnarowicz, amongst others.
