The Decline Of Western Civilization Part 2: The Metal Years


A Penelope Spheeris film chronicling the LA Metal scene in the late 80's.

Even if you aren't a metal fan, it is a very good film.

All the Louis Theroux-documentaries are good. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0857621/ He has also done a good documentary about the porno-industy, it's about 10 years old and pretty out of date, still it's good.

I LOVE well-rounded and genuninealy well made documentaries.

HBO's Brett Killed Mom: A Sister's Diary by Lisa Reider from '96, is hands-down one of my absolute favorites. I also found a web page in which Brett's now wife answers questions and supporters fielded toards him. He has been released as of several year ago, thankfully, and he has three children I believe. One Autistic and requires a lot of the young couples time & attention.

But I'll find it if anyone wants. It's been on the HBO's for us digital cable late nite surfers for years, and is well worth DVR-ing since I doubt it'll ever get a BluRay disc or even DVD release.

This is the most recent in an independant documentary series on america's stryker.
Anybody with even the slightest interest in where their taxes go/the military should watch this. If they like that, they can always subscribe to the guys channel.


This is my favourite program of a documentary series which postulates how life will evolve after the world has cured itself of the disease that is mankind:

This is part of a non-independant series on the military:


Documentary on the Russian revolution:
