IMDB



Manson is a 1973 documentary film directed by Robert Hendrickson and Laurence Merrick. It deals with the "Manson family" and has many interviews with the members of the group, including Charles Manson, "Squeaky" Fromme, and Sandra Good. This film contains original footage of the Charles Manson Family at their Spahn Ranch compound, Devil's Canyon, their Barker Ranch hideout in Death Valley, the Hall of Justice in Los Angeles and various other locations. When "Squeaky" Fromme attempted to assassinate President Gerald Ford, the Manson film was banned by US District Court Judge Thomas McBride in order to preserve Ms Fromme's constitutional right to a fair and speedy trial. Robert Hendrickson's right to "free speech" was thus set aside and the matter was taken by the ACLU to the US Supreme Court.


Soundtrack music for the movie was created by Brooks Poston and Paul Watkins, two former Manson associates. As well, music performed by the Manson Family can also be heard on the soundtrack.


It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.

While "Manson" does not contain any really new information about the infamous Manson murders, it does contain lots of new information about who the family is, their "Helter Skelter" plan, and what they are doing today (circa 1972).
"Manson" is a bit hard to find on video, but when I found it, I bought it and loved it! I had read "Helter Skelter" about 8 times and knew just about everything about the Manson case. I finally was able to see the twisted Family members being interviewed, shown skinny-dipping and sewing, dancing around, and having sex! Squeaky Fromme, Sandy Good, Nancy Pittman, Capistrano, Mary Brunner, Clem, Bruce Davis, Charles Manson, and plenty of witnesses are interviewed, giving grotesquely fascinating details about life in the Family. This is just too good to miss, any true crime buff or anyone who wants to be scared by something that REALLY happened, see this. It will give you the shivers. Features Manson and his Family singing "Never Say Never to Always" and two former Family members doing the rest of the fantastic music.
