THE BEATNIKS (1960) (http://imdb.com/title/tt0053640/) - This is a good JD film. It's about a bunch of punks who rob a liquor store for $400 and while stopping for a bit to eat the leader of the gang sings near the jukebox and a recording agent hears him sing and likes it. He's offered to go on TV and later to cut a record, but his friends hold him back and cause many problems. There is one scene that is cut from the film and it's the murder of the bartender. Again this is a good film in my opinion and I also hear that MYSTERY THEATER 3000 did this one, but really you can watch it without the robots. Check it out. Bought it as part of a double feature $1 disk.

I did see the MSTK version...and I found it to be very enjoyable...(not the 'bots...whom I DON"T like! :hatred:). I like movies that feature sub-cultures from the past...also lotsa fun! Or..."Hep,Daddy -O"!
I rember that BUCKET of BLOOD had a 'beat' style club as the main setting...a place for the loony Dick Miller to diplay his "art".

BUCKET OF BLOOD is a good one. Remember this one as a kid in the 70's with the cat in the wall being plastered. Saw it later again as one of my very first b-movies after visiting this website.
