Ricky 6 (2000)

 Ricky 6 (2000)
aka
Say You Love Satan

Richard "Ricky" Kasso was also known as The Acid King. He murdered 17-year-old acquaintance Gary Lauwers in Northport,Long Island, New York on June 16, 1984. Two other teens, Jimmy Troiano and Albert Quinones were present at the murder, which took place in the Aztakea Woods of Northport while all four were high on what they believed to be mescaline but was most likely either PCP or LSD. Ricky stabbed his victim to death and gouged out Lauwers eyes whilst screaming "Say you love Satan". "Ricky 6" is a well-researched account of this horrible ritualistic murder. The acting is good and some sequences are truly psychedelic. After the murder Ricky sees the Black Beast whilst Australian doom death legend Disembowelment's track "Your Prophetic Throne of Ivory" plays in the background. (IMDB  HumanoidOfFlesh)

Crumb (1994)

 Crumb (1994)

Crumb takes a deeply personal look at 60's counterculture artist Robert Crumb. The film focuses upon three decades of Crumb's artwork to reconstruct his unhappy childhood, days with Zap Comix in the late 60's, `dark side' period and recent life. Interviews with him, his wife Aline, family and friends reveal the motives behind his astounding creativity. Crumb is sometimes hilarious, often depressing and always entertaining – a rare combination in a documentary film.

During childhood, Crumb and his brothers Charles and Maxon found solace from their tyrannical father in comic books and drawing cartoons. Crumb escaped the mental illness that ended both his brother's careers as artists (Charles was equally as talented), but otherwise had a perfectly miserable childhood and adolescence. Socially awkward, bullied at school and rejected by women, he decided in 1962 (at age 17) to take revenge upon society `by becoming a famous artist'. (IMDB steven.swenson)
