5.0 out of 5 stars Not just the best Manson film ever but a essential historical document of the 60's, January 16, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The original 1973 MANSON documentary, now on DVD and signed by the filmmaker Robert Hendrickson- EXCLUSIVE NEWS: New MANSON Book "Death to Pigs" Now for sale on AMAZON
Before I get into the film I need to mention that I received this DVD in record time. I ordered it on Wednesday and received it on Friday. That is the kind of customer service which needs to be celebrated. I will definately order more product from this vendor.

Now to the film itself.

It is the definitive visual account of the Manson family and their crimes. As a documentary it is very effective interspersing images(incredible picture quality) of Manson, Susan Atkins, Krenwinkel and Van Houten in court with interviews with prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi and interviews with Family Members at Spahhn Ranch.

The stars of the film are Lyn Fromme and Sandy Good who are wonderfully creepy and maniacal in their devotion to Manson. These girls who could have lived next door to you growing up are now handling guns and knifes and talking casually of murder. Hollywood couldn't write anything this perfect

This documentary works as a straight up horror movie due to the wonderfully grainy and unsteady camera work and psychedelic visuals which give it a similar feel to alot of the horror movies of the era.

An awesome documentary...visually stunning and it allows the family members to really open up to the camera. Incredibly fast shipping.

Highest recommendation
