Last Days Here. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

Please update this thread after watching it. Great doc, probably the most emotional one that I have seen.

My wife watched Somm a while back and I caught the tail end of it. I need to watch it from the beginning.

No No: A Dockumentary (about Dock Ellis, a pitcher in the 1970s, who is famous for throwing a no hitter on LSD. He was an interesting cat who became a drug counselor.)

Cropsey (about all these tales of a boogy man in Long Island. Turned out the state shut down a mental institution in the area, so you had former patients hanging around, plus high school kids would go to the abandoned mental hospital to scare the shite out of themselves/fool around/get drunk and high)

Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon (About this guy who is Alice Cooper's manager. He's a great storyteller who knows everybody)

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father
20 Feet From Stardom (I LOVED LOVED LOVED this one! It's about how backup singers get little to no recognition!)
Invisible War (attempts to cover up sexual assault in the military)
An Unreal Dream (be prepared to be thoroughly pissed off at our justice system)
Holy Rollers - The Story of Card Counting Christians
Pulling John (it's about competitive arm wrestling. Sounds boring, but it was great!)
Deliver Us From Evil (pedophilia in the Catholic church)
Exit Through the Gift Shop (about the graffiti artist, Banksy)
Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey
Senna (about the car racer)
King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (about competition Donkey Kong players...not kidding)
Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead (green and clean eating)
Capturing the Friedmans

The Vice Guide to Travel: Liberia


I don't know if it's on instant but it's also on Youtube. Really interesting and eye opening.

FIFY. Friends who grew up in the area tell me some of these stories. I tried to get into this doc but just couldn't.

A really good doc, the stuff these guys go through trying to pass the test is pretty amazing.



King of Kong....I'm really hoping there is a cameo of Billy in the new Adam Sandler video game movie where he gets smashed by Donkey Kong....I'm thinking Peter Dinklage's character may be based off of him.

That would be funny. Of course the movie was very dishonest about Billy.
