Southern Fried Homicide (2013–2015)

Producers of this trash harrassed the family of a murder victim, then made an episode against the family's expressed wishes

I realize there is an unavoidable element of scum in this world, but the way the producers of this trash repeatedly contacted the Shunick family to participate in the sensationalism and vulgar exploitation of their tragedy is beyond sickening- and the fact that they persisted on making the episode in spite of the family's pleas is beneath contempt.

Inside the Manson Gang (2007)

Interesting home movie-type footage, but narration & terrible music makes it unwatchable.

This is terrible. It's worse than a made-for-TV movie. It is actually unwatchable. The narrator unbearable. His delivery is so contrived and overwrought it's ridiculous. I tried skimming through because the archive footage is interesting but he totally ruins it. Waste of time and potentially great material. If the original material can be reused then it would be worth your time, but in it's current state, it's laughable. I am amazed that an experienced filmmaker would make this, let alone think it was good. It doesn't shed any light, or provide any new insight into the mindset of the perpetrators or their daily life before or after the murders. It makes a mockery of the seriousness of the crimes and their impact, as well as the history of the "family".
