This Is Gwar

Back in mid-'80s Richmond, punk bassist Dave Brockie met vocalist and practical effects buff Hunter Jackson--and the over-the-top outrageous horror-metal act they co-created has continued to perform and record ever since, through roster churn, controversy, and '90s-era flirtation with the mainstream. Gwar gets its due with this documentary appreciation, offering perspectives from past and present members, as well as fans like "Weird Al" Yankovic, Ethan Embry, Thomas Lennon, Bam Margera, more. 110 min. Widexreen; Soundtrack: English.
