I'm actually reading helter skelter for the first time i just got it from the library yesterday, I really want to see the movie not the new one but the original and unfortunatley I cant find it around here. I've said in other posts about susan atkins that shouldn't be in a hospital. i think they should just let her stay in her cell. Let her suffer. But that's just me.
woooo hoo keep up the good work!! Im so excited I cant wait to order this.
That'll be a nice way to end the summer-we've waited this long-not much longer now.
Thanks Filmmaker78 :-)
My mom said she wont watch the 70's version at night by herself. She said it spooked her way too much. lol I'll have to see the new version too and I'll have to look it up on amazon thanks for telling me Linnythepooh I have a dvd/vhs player so i dont care if i get it on either as long as i can see it lol
I liked both of them, because they show different sides to this case. The original shows the hunt for the killers and the court case and the new version shows more of "Family life". However, the newer version looked somewhat cheap, with some of the worst wigs I've seen. And some of the details weren't right either. Like for instance, in the scene where Sharon is murdered, you see Susan Atkins, Tex Watson AND Patricia Krenwinkel stabbing Sharon.
Some people just need a high five.... in the face.... with a chair...
Any Death Hags around Smithfield North Carolina will have the opportunity to see the world premiere of The Six Degrees of Helter Skelter - later this month. 9:30pm Friday September 26th.

We're working on a new trailer! The film has come miles and miles from where it was six months ago.
I agree. I have both on dvd. 2 different views of the case. The 1976 version was cool and Steve Railsback as Charlie was eerie! He scared me (although I was 10 at the time). Great performance. THe 2004 version is really cool and I like the way they focused more on the family life and more on the victims before they died. It was nice that they put some humanity into the victims, showed them as people and not just dead bodies on the ground/floor. I thought Jeremy Davies did a fantastic job as Charlie, different from Steve Railsback but just as good and just as convincing. Both a definite must have for your DVD collection.
Smithfield North Carolina

So with the premiere tomorrow, when can we can expect to be able to order our own copies!? I'm excited!!!
Thanks for asking!
The film is at a point this week where we're relying on someone else's work and schedule (we're having it color graded) so it depends on how fast that person gets it done. When he's finished, there's a two-week delay to get the DVD on the market. I'm aiming for November.
ok~must focus on November........

So when is the DVD release date again?
Must be November I've asked for this for Christmas.
That trailer is class BTW.
My DVD player is broken. I wonder if the good old trusty playstation 2 would play the american version(I'm in London). I'm guessing not as someone up top mentioned only the newer ones play all types.
It should play on your pc, Falcon. Last year I bought an Australian dvd (region 4) and I can play it on my pc.

Scott and Filmmaker78 asked to use the photo I posted here that I took of the "Tate House" taken from Valentino's house in 1979 and it's on the TRAILER!!

I told Mr Snudgie that I wanted it.....you should have seen the look I got...it was like...
*Holy crap, what kind of a FREAK did I marry!??!*
Bwahahahhaaaaaaaa!....that's my evil laugh, by the way..
My oldest daughter has a fasination with serial killers...we are both excited about seeing this video!!!
I am sure I mentioned this before but when I got Scotts first DVD "Dearly Departed Vol I" when I started it I was alone in the family room...little by little the family just couldn't resist having a peek and pretty soon I had the whole family watching it with me.
I guess they are closet Death hags.
Havent been around here for a while but I'm still waiting with baited breath for the DVD, so so excited!
Yeah the 2nd trailer looks even better than the first (white rabbit) one.
I'll try asking again, does anyone know if there is an actual release date scheduled yet?
Scott should have a screening at Hollywood Forever Cemetary, I would bring popcorn for everyone, I'm just saying.
Wow! now this looks good.
Hey can I ask a question I dunno if its dumb or somethin....
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
My question: Why hasn't the Dearly Departed Tour been publicized?
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Yeah... Just got my father to buy the Dearly Departed dvs´s for Christmas - new he would understand my "weird" interests Hope it will be released in time
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Love is the answer - and you know that for sure.
LOL OH OK...no i mean like commercials on tv and stuff.
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
I'm excited for this. I honestly don't even know much about this whole story, but I hear so much about it. Can't wait!
Kind of random, but I recently saw Manson's prison shirt at a Ripley's museum in TN.
I can't wait for DDII to come out!!!!!
I just got DD I the other day and watched it last night. It was so cool!!!!!!!!! Loved it Scott.
Come on with DDII!!!
Sign me up for a copy!! This is going to be great....
