If anyone one is pondering the relverance this film has, it has influence when punk, oi! bands.
The Adicts
Lower Class Brats
The Clockwork Crew
The book is much better. Anthony Burgess created his own slang for it that was a hybrid of Russian and English. Punk bands aren't the only ones that have hopped on the clockwork Orange bandwagon, there's also a hip hop MC who draws heavily from the movie, though I can't remember his name right now.
