Where Does The Killer Lie?

Jack Rebney is the most famous man you've never heard of - after cursing his way through a Winnebago sales video, Rebney's outrageously funny outtakes became an underground sensation and made him an internet superstar. Filmmaker Ben Steinbauer journeys to the top of a mountain to find the recluse who unwittingly became the "Winnebago Man".

Gibney, de la mano de un narrador de excepción, el actor Johnny Depp, nos invita a un extraordinario viaje a la extraña y salvaje vida del Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, creador del periodismo Gonzo y autor de la célebre “Miedo y Asco en Las Vegas”. Un documental brutalmente entretenido que retrata los momentos más decisivos en la vida de Thompson, desde su rebelde juventud, sus primeros trabajos como periodista, la turbulenta relación que le unió a los Ángeles del Infierno, su infructuosa candidatura a Sheriff de Aspen o su notoria implicación en la campaña presidencial de 1972. Todo ello narrado por las personas más importantes en la vida de ese rebelde con causa que fue Hunter Stockton Thompson.

Equal parts punk and psychedelia, the Flaming Lips emerged from Oklahoma City as one of the most bracing bands of the late 1980s. The Fearless Freaks documents their rise from Butthole Surfers-imitating noisemakers to grand poobahs of orchestral pop masterpieces. Filmmaker Bradley Beesely had the good fortune of living in the same neighborhood as lead Lip Wayne Coyne, who quickly enlisted his buddy to document his band's many concerts and assorted exploits. The early footage is a riot, with tragic hair styles on proud display as the boys attempt to cover up their lack of natural talent with sheer volume. During one show, they even have a friend bring a motorcycle on stage, which is then miked for sound and revved throughout the performance, clearing the club with toxic levels of carbon monoxide. Great punk rock stuff. Interspersed among the live bits are interviews with the band's family and friends, revealing the often tragic circumstances of their childhoods and early career.
