Alicia I love this movie so much
Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
crossbow0106 I am not a fan of Pentagram, I have barely heard of them. However, I barely heard of Anthrax and thought that documentary was superb. That film was about a band soldiering on, ad midst a mostly apathetic public. This is the story of a broken wreck of a man named Bobby Liebling, someone who actually is doing drugs on film. Thankfully, he seems more coherent as the film goes on, to the point where you can understand him. Even if you think of him as a drug addled loser (this is not disrespect, watch the film), you want him to clean up and succeed. This film at first had no meaning to me, but it is the story of a second act. another chance. The best thing about the film are the interviews, as they are not with musical legends, but people who love him. You can see their frustration, but you also see the caring. I wish him well. The film is good, not in the echelon of the Anthrax and Rush documentaries, but worth watching.
s_albert This is the sad story of Bobby Liebling, strung out on every narcotic you can think of, a mere shadow of the stage-commanding metal god we all remember him as, reduced to the heart-tugging confines of his parents' basement.This is very much like the film, Anvil: The Story of Anvil, showing us the harsh realities befallen to some bands, despite their moments in the sun, and their God-given resiliency to forge on and keep the music alive.Next to death for seemingly the majority of his life, Bobby somehow manages to conquer his demons, find love, and revive his musical career in a heart-warming culmination of survival, spurred by an amazing assortment of friends and family.The metal lives, and Bobby, you're helping to lead the way.
vibrationsofdoom Folks, I have been in the music business for 20 years now, and up until 4 or 5 albums back, I had no idea who Pentagram was. I had always heard the name, but never heard the music; however when I finally did, I was blown away. An American doom metal band that had been around as long as Black Sabbath, IE The U.S.'s oldest and longest running doom metal band... I remember the "First Days Here" compilation CD on Relapse, and I ALSO remember "Pellet" as he was affectionately known, handing me CD copies of their stuff and helping me do a phone interview with Bobby Liebling. I've interviewed him not once but TWICE, and of course had tears in my eyes when Pentagram FINALLY played a show down here in Atlanta being ever the mysterious and kick ass front man he's always been.It was nice to finally connect a face to the publicist I had dealt with; many times the record label personnel I deal with I never get to meet. Pellet is obviously VERY driven and passionate about his subject, a fact that has driven me to do what I do for 20 years now. It's always amazing to me to see someone that seems to have a magnetic aura about them that draws people in. Sometimes you wonder if the lyrics in Bobby's songs reveal self-fulfilling prophecies, as there are MANY setbacks, disasters and near-death calls for Bobby. The sheer fact that he survived the amount of drugs that would kill TWENTY men half his age is proof positive that this life was DESTINED to be noticed. The settings were very endearing and this isn't some pompous, egotistical rock god (although his earlier band mates have different views on Liebling), and it's very touching to see his thanks and praise for the help he received throughout life. Some would say that if not for Pellet he might no longer be here, which would be an even BIGGER tragedy... Especially with all the metal legends who have passed away recently...(SPOILER ALERT): You KNOW the man has done great things in music when even Phil Anselmo from Pantera, who obviously has sold more records and made more money than Bobby's ever SEEN, gives him extremely high praise. (*END ALERT*) Okay, that may not be a HUGE spoiler, but then again, it is great to see a man who wrote SO many amazing songs finally get his due. And I mean in the early 70's there was this sinister vibe to his heavy, HEAVY music, the man was ahead of his time. And when I first read Bobby's lyrics, I was sure this guy was from Europe, mainly by the way he wrote. Folks, get to know this man and then go out and buy EVERY Pentagram album you can find. He's loved, lost and bounced back, a true testament to the fact that oftentimes when you have hit rock bottom, if you're open and willing, there WILL be help to get you back up...
jmj3-455-190240 I often watch previews on I-tunes and when I saw this one and heard the opening chords of forever my queen I just knew I had to find out more. I got seriously hooked on the music and have replayed the album first daze here over and over ever since. I finally got to see the movie and it didn't disappoint. It's a real bummer these guys didn't make it but the story of Bobby Liebling is pretty incredible. I wish I could personally thank Pellet for having the patience and heart to see this through. I think he saved Bobby's life through sheer persistence. If you don't see the movie go get some of the music. it's some of the best metal i've ever heard from that era and it deserves to be mentioned along with the other gods of rock. everything is all wrapped up. nothing more to be said oh no.
