The Offenders is a 1980 American No Wave color Super 8 film directed by Scott B and Beth B that, as a punk melodrama, post-modernly refers back to the 1921 melodrama film The Offenders directed by Fenwicke L. Holmes. It originally was presented as a serial that screened at Max's Kansas City and the Mudd Club whereby each week the attendees paid for the making of next week's episodes.

The full version of The Offenders was first shown on March 6, 1980, at Film Forum and then at other film houses during the height of the early-1980s New York City crime wave. Publicity photographs for The Offenders were shot by Marcia Resnick.
