Titillation and drive-in exploitation tactics are readily employed to keep the viewer watching, with a filmmaking approach coasting along in a psychedelic documentary mode.

A nauseating mlange.

Its own mythology aside, this flamboyant, graphic and disturbing quasi-docu reenactment of a notorious chapter in U.S. counterculture life is a fascinating if peculiar accomplishment.

Van Bebber's film is tough, difficult, sporadically brilliant cinema, to be sure, and I doubt he'd have had it any other way.

Van Bebber has delivered a stylistically vigorous and often insightful piece of work.

Audience Reviews for The Manson Family

Jan 16, 2011An effective docudrama about the cult of Manson which features mock interviews with the members of the cult along with flashbacks of their dirty deeds. Lots of sex, nudity, drug taking and graphic bloody stabbings. But it's all been shot in an hallucinogenic way with choppy editing, which I got and understood, but it didn't make for a comfortable viewing experience... a bit too wierd. It's not completely accurate to the original events either. Still, an interesting little fim.Lee ? Super Reviewer

Mar 10, 2009Damn this movie was brutal! From the cover of the DVD I thought this movie was going to be more of a documentary. However it really wasnt,there were some interviews followed by some reinactments. The picture quilty of this movie was really,really bad. There was grain everywhere. This movie was creppy though. The Manson family is the story of Charles Manson's followers. How they were brainwashed to thinking that he was a God or something. Thier were many graphic sex scenes,much like a soft core porno. Then there were some of the most brutal deaths scenes I have ever seen! Which is saying alot bevilve me! This movie is defentiley not for the faint of heart. This movie might scare the shit out of you!Kevin L Super Reviewer

Mar 16, 2008Interesting film that is most notable for being the infamous Van Beeber film. Years in the making, mostly in post, there were many articles and even a book put out before this film ever saw the light of day. I remember thinking I'd never get to see this. With that kind of anticipation, the film was sure to be a let down. Still, it's a great cross between an art film, bio pic and extreme horror with Van Beeber's expected anarchic style. Good stuff that really deserves a second viewing from me.Christopher B Super Reviewer
