Genres: Documentary
Eccentric, outspoken, and unfiltered TV and low budget film director Josh Becker struggles to emerge from the shadow of his work on "The Evil Dead", "Xena", the careers of his more successful colleagues, depression and alcoholism to fulfill his lifelong ambition of creating high quality, successful films.
Reviews
Peter
Aside from his contribution to Sam Raimi's original Evil Dead, and his own cult classic, Thou Shalt Not Kill...Except, I knew basically nothing about Becker prior to watching this doc. Now I know plenty. Some of it's good. Some is not so good. At any rate, it's an informative and largely enjoyable look at one of cult cinema's lesser known filmmakers.
