Steve Vineberg Boston Phoenix It's not exploitative, exactly, but it's dumb and tawdry and cheap-looking. Oct 8, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member It’s hard to think of a more raw or disturbing documentary about the Mansons than this one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/30/21 Full Review delysid d I enjoyed watching the Manson Family in their natural habitat from a safe distance, this is the best film about them ive seen. they sure were totally nuts and their music was awful Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/03/18 Full Review Audience Member The Oscar nominated Documentary of Charles Manson & his Family at the Californian Ranch, although not high in quality it contains a lot of actual footage from the Ranch & produced not long after Manson was charged & sentenced. Has some compelling interviews of members of the ranch who still worship & believe Manson will be freed. It's incredible how brainwashed they truly were & how in only four weeks they performed an unforgettably horrific murder. Basically a Sex Cult that turned sadistic in a short time, poorly made but still intriguing to view. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member ***Due to the recent RT changes that have basically ruined my past reviews, I am mostly only giving a rating rather than a full review.*** Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The most frightening documentary I have ever seen. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Rivetting and repulsive in equal measure. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
