Xanax-driven narration makes you want to switch off


The narration has a very similar tone to the apathetic, lazy drawl of the female narrative to Bakshi's "Wizards". I found it corny and off-putting at the same time. Makes you wonder whether Schreck and LaVey were sedated or perhaps Shreck was trying to imbue a feeling of inured horror. A serious study brought undone by self-indulgent Director.

Good Point, sm14
But I still enjoyed this film... Overall. It certainly has a DIFFERENT outlook, then every other doc out there on Manson.

yep, I agree. This film was probably made for 25 cents, and assembled by amateurs. YET, Manson uncensored by TV networks is simply a fascinating and charismatic character. He alone holds your attention and keeps this film from spilling all over the floor. Can you imagine what he could do with a budget? lol!

A little hilarious as Schreck is the +last+ person who would poison his body with drugs.
