Manson Family Vacation (2015)
Annoying film to watch.
Manson was just another tin pot dictator with mental health issues. The families time out in the desert was fueled by fear, paranoia and his ravings which were born out of resentments and megalomania.
The premise of his adoring status in this film is he knew way back that society was doomed and a tribal lifestyle was where its at. Lord Of The Flies was what it actually was.
And all the adoring idiots , what were they The Family mark 2.
Seeing his son visiting the murder scenes and taking pics in one of the Manic
evil looking pictures of Manson on his t shirt with his inane grin just showed me the apple doesn't fall far from the tree with the mental health,
What about visiting Belsen in a Hitler T shirt and take a few pic in a gas chamber.
The ending redeemed the film a little, seeing the vulnerable real Manson for once getting emotional about his kids and realising how much he is reviled and eliciting some compassion for him. Also the brothers making up.
If the alternative to Helter Skelter is living with any one or anything to do with Charles Manson then look elsewhere.
True Detective (2014)
Dull on 3 levels
Thought series two was full of padding, marking time but this series does the same on 3 time zones, a soap opera plot revolving around the detectives that was tired and worn. Wonder if the main actor was trained in How to act like a scaffold plank. After 4 episodes decided to cut to the last one and realized I wasn't interested in who done it or much else.
Wonder if its been all hype with no substance since the first series.
Craith (2018)
Glaring Plot Holes
I can't believe the police never put that CCTV photo they had out to the public or at least shared it with the 2 uniforms who visited suspects house and never shared the photo to them or the rest of the police force. All dragged on a bit. plenty of padding in theses series.
