Manson Family Vacation

5/3/2017

Just based on the title I felt like I had to watch it, then when I realised it was a Duplass Brothers production I REALLY had to watch it. The Duplass Brothers have had a couple misses in their resumes but overall they signify good indie-filmmaking. What they never are afraid to do is to do something different and tell stories that Hollywood wouldn't or if they would in a very different manner . Where Hollywood would normally sensationalize something to the max they usually play down their stories to a more humane level. The characters in their films are usually a bit odd or dysfunctional in one way or the other. And this is definitly on that same page, with the title you would expect something really exploitative and wild but it's really low-key and more a character study than anyth
