06/14/2012 Now I'm really into cult movies-- I kind of see myself as an authority on them. So the fact that I've never heard of the Kuchar brothers until I watched this documentary made me realize that I was missing out on some genuinely absurd underground cinema. This doc simply serves to point out that these filmmakers existed. There really isn't any conflict, just two aging guys reflecting on a lifetime of work. See more 07/25/2011 Really well-made and oftentimes touching profile on the Kuchar twins, which also serves as a nice introduction to their intimidatingly large body of work. I wrote a lengthier review and it somehow got lost in this thing so fuck it See more 07/04/2011 fun doc about two highly influential twin underground filmmakers. i've seen very little of their stuff but i think i should start searching it out.

See more 04/17/2011 I received free tickets to see this at ACMI on Friday night so I dragged my work buddy along to it. This was a bizarre yet strangely captivating documentary about George and Mike Kuchard, two underground film makers. These two oddball brothers had a unique take on filmmaking and many of their films are underground and not of the norm. This documentary (made by a former student of George) shows their eccentricites, the laughter and the sadness that seems to plague them both. It's hard to tell if they are joking or serious in this docu but both like to talk nonstop. Their films seem very strange and over the top and hilarious. If you are into B Grade movies and the underground movement that you will enjoy this documentary. See more 03/27/2011 The wacky tale of little-known underground genre filmmakers, George & Mike Kuchar, this doc is a gasp a minute, not only because of the truly strange and frequently awful excerpts from their prolific oeuvre, but also because of the wry and entertaining commentary by interviewees like John Waters and Buck Henry. I liked also the running thread of George's hands-on teaching of ardent young film students. By the end, we've learned perhaps more than we wanted to know about the driven and most peculiar psyches of these two twins, kinda like the doc Crumb, sort of borderline creepy. All in good fun.
