In response to the legend that the “Manson Family” may have filmed themselves in some of theirs exploits, this film is a re-creation as to what a film of their may have been like. The film, shot in a piecemeal fashion, is an intentionally amateurish faux “home movie” of the events leading up to, and including, the infamous Tate-LaBianca murders.
In Ed Sanders’ book, “The Family”, he claimed that the Manson Family had stolen some of NBC’s film equipment and filmed themselves. John Aes-Nihil shot a film of what this may have been. Not for everyone’s taste, but this silent film using Manson, The Manson Family and Beyond Joy and Evil as the soundtrack, is a very effective film. At times it can be campy and at others it is just plain scary. Featuring a cast of men as women/women as men, we see the adventures of the Manson family as they hang out, kill and crucify Charlie. Definitely will interest fans of John Waters or low budget horror.
A rare treat. Thank you!!
