GG Allin and the Murder Junkies
The legendary documentary from filmmaker Todd Phillips consists of the most detailed and intimate footage the world will ever see of GG Allin. Both fans and critics alike have praised this film for its truthfully brutal portrait of an American Rock N Roll icon at the peak of his madness. By skillfully combining concert and interview footage of GG, Phillips "delves deeply into the bloodstained world of human abomination" and creates "a must-have for Allin fans and detractors alike", according to Film Threat. There may never be another GG Allin. This documentary brilliantly examines an artist whose life was his performance.

Probably one of the most brutally honest documentaries about rock ever made. At times it's almost a parody of itself by how far these band members will go for shock value, but it all seems weirdly genuine.

It's crazy to think that this filmmaker went on to make Road Trip. Great Doc.

Wow. NY and the ends of liberal art at it's finest worst. There are no words really, to describe the demonized soul of this tormented fool, or the sick, perversion to follow him like so many losers have, unabashedly. I don't get it, and I don't want to get it. I'm glad this sociopath is over and done, with no one else getting killed. Alarmingly, this film also reveals the more widespread sickness that fills the darkest corners of the night in Boston and elsewhere in these twisted sub-cultures that somehow exist and thrive. Totally disgusting, all of it.
No surprises were revealed as a result of watching the film... He wasn't likable and didn't want to be...I felt like I needed to take a shower afterwards.
Important documentary of the punk rock period.
fucking amazing.....Scary....All sorts of bad......A real documentary
Yes I lived it and I actually like the music, the movie was cute
Disturbing, not much revealed, but I also think that was what GG would have wanted.
Wow
very very interesting
The mark of excellence...excellence and distinction....Mr. Allin is a fine wine
Disturbing but raw documentary. NOT for the weak of heart... for sure!
Just the thing for a lonely night.
