Last Documentary You Watched? (Page 10 of 16)

Nightmare Factory - a great doc about KNB Effects and Greg Nicotero, very entertaining.

Nightmares in Red, White, and Blue. Fantastic. Just Fantastic.

Capturing the Friedmans. Such a depressing documentary on a family torn apart by child abuse. It was nice to see it from the abusers familys point of view because people forget they are victims too. At the end seeing the video footage of the young friedman children playing together and with their parents innocently years before anything, after hearing of the distruction Arnold caused was harrowing, saddening and tragic. A well made doc with a real heartbreaking subject matter.

The American Nightmare (2000) : Explores Landmark films in American Horror or within certain Directors filmography (E.g NOTLD DOTD TCM LHOTL Shivers and Halloween) in a specifically political and sociological context. I knew quite a lot of the points raised in the various conversations (Savinis involvement in Vietnam) within the doc but learned some new stuff aswell so, personally this was well worth the watch. The overriding message I got from it though was (and this is particularly directed to non horror audiences)

HORROR - This is how the world REALLY is - FCKN DEAL WITH IT!
Though we cant control history, too bad politicians and we as humankind are too ignorant to FACE and learn from it.  Ladies and gentlemen, thats where Horror films can come in.

Food, Inc
Bowling For Columbine
Religiulous

Explosion 1812

Toronto / York keepin you dudes in the south.... south of us!

Bela Lugosi: Hollywood's Dark Prince.

Currently enjoying Best Worst Movie (2009) about Troll 2. The film itself has proved pretty elusive, but the documentary is easier to find so I decided to use the time Georgia is watching Barbie to watch it. It's a pretty beautiful doc to be fair.

Never Sleep Again - The Elm Street Legacy. A very nice little doc featuring Wes Craven and some of the cast and crew involved in the creation of one of the scariest horror movies in the genre. Nightmare on Elm Street is one of my favourite films of all time and is probably my favourite horror movie. I'm a big fan of Craven and this doc has made me find a whole new respect for Elm Street. It tells the story of the conception, creation and troubles of Elm Street and documents all the problems they faced with a low budget. I think every Freddy fan should watch this
