The Manson Family
 

I just bought this on special edition 2 disc DVD, Just wanted to know what everyone thinks of it.

Liked the part based on fact, but the ending was a bit crap

It's hard to believe so many people could be 'Controled' by one person

whether its real or not, I just liked the movie in general. Its nice to see exploitation horror didnt die out.

If it's the version that was recently shown on TV, I thought it was pretty good. But the must-see version is the one with Steve Railsback, Helter Skelter. That was excellent. Steve Railsback WAS Manson. A great performance! So are there interviews with any of the actual people involved? Why the 2-Discs?

No, that one's Helter Skelter. The Manson Family is the Jim VanBebber film (originally titled Charlie's Family). Totally different.
I thought MF rocked. Gore and nekkied chicks a plenty all wrapped in a nightmareish bit of insanity.

Ah ha! Hadn't heard of that one. Thanks for the information. Saw a home video type movie of the manson family titled, simply enough, Manson. Lots of jerky camera angles, interviews with the bunch holding vigil outside the courthouse, Squeaky Fromme in daisy-dukes holding a snake she referred to as "Snakey". Odd, interesting and corny. It wasn't listed on the IMDB when I checked out the VanBebber film, but, a curiosity if you are interested in a behind the scenes poser-type view of the "family".

its so weird to watch this movie because sadie(maureen) used to be my dance teacher at school before she moved to Atlanta with her fiancee and its like wow its awesome!!!!! i give her a thumbs up for doing that movie and everyone else it was tuff because it took so long to actually film it she went thorough marriage, parenthood, divorce, army, school, teaching, everything while still filming this movie ;)

a low budget b-movie...its ok.....but dont expect good acting and continuity....

you got to see her boobies :D
