Other good mocumentaries?


I was looking for some suggestions on other good mocumentaries.

I've seen this movie and Spinal Tap. Any good ones are welcome.

Thanks!

"Headbangers Terry and Dean explore the depths of friendship, and the art and science of drinking beer like a man."

Very funny, up there with Kenny. Beautiful, thick Canadian accents.

The other films from the Spinal Tap crew:
-Best in Show (about a dog show)
-A Mighty Wind (the Spinal Tap of folk music, Eugene Levy is fantastic in this)

Fubar is another good one, as was already mentioned.

REC and Cloverfield are two mocumentaries that i really enjoyed

You gotta watch "That Peter Kay Thing" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0231048/) British mockumentary series with very similair awesome akward humour .

Someone mentioned FUBAR agree 100%
Another one is "Anvil" heavy metal band.

"The Story of Anvil" is a *real* documentary, not mockumentary. In terms of hysterical real documentaries, I would highly recommend "American Movie" (1999).

Other Good Mockumentaries:

Australian: Summer Heights High & We Can Be Heroes (Both by Chris Lilley)

American Sitcom/Mockumentary Series: Reno 911, Parks and Recreation, The Office
American Movies: Lord of the Dice, Opération lune, Waiting for Guffman

Canadian: Trailer Park Boys



There are many others too, but they're the ones I have enjoyed, particularly Trailer Park Boys - that's in a class of its own.

In terms of Spinal Tap there's also "For your consideration" by Christopher Guest, anything he does is great.

FUBAR is amazing. Also the Castle, which isn't strictly a Doc, but has a really similar feel to Kenny & is the most hilarious & heartwarming film I've seen in a long time. It also includes an early role for the Awesome Eric Bana.

Again, not a mockumentary, but a similar sort of humour: The Foot Fist Way with Danny McBride. Just amazing.
