Anyone else seeing this in theaters tonight (04/30/14) before the BluRay Release on 06/03/14??



From Banger Films, the creators of Iron Maiden: Flight 666 and Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage, comes Super Duper Alice Cooper the story of Vincent Furnier, the preacher's son who struck fear into the hearts of parents everywhere as Alice Cooper, the most outrageous rock star of his generation. This unique doc opera, a dizzying blend of documentary archive footage, animation and rock opera goes from the early days of Alice as the front man for a cutting edge rock band in the sixties through the hazy decadence of global celebrity in the seventies and on to his winking comeback as the glam metal godfather in the eighties. This is the tale of Alice and Vincent battling for each others souls. Super Duper Alice Cooper combines audio interviews with a wealth of archive Alice Cooper footage covering concerts, TV appearances, movie cameos, dramatic headlines and magazine spreads. All the highlights of his career are covered aided by contributions from some of the biggest music icons of all time including Iggy Pop, Elton John, John Lydon, Bernie Taupin, Dee Snider and of course Alice Cooper himself. This is the definitive, extraordinary story of the man and the myth that is uniquely Alice Cooper.

It was pretty darn awesome!! If you are a Die Hard Alice Cooper fan you won't learn much that you didn't already know but the vintage concert footage and behind the scenes footage was really cool. The best part was listening to Alice narrate his life.

****SPOILER ALERT****

[Show spoiler]Alice's drinking problem is legendary but I had no clue that he almost died from excessive Drug use. I found it odd that there was no mention of Glen Buxton or Michael Bruce. But lets face it this could have been a 6 hour movie and I would have been screaming for more.

I'm surprised how little discussion this release got! If you can find a copy, I'd definitely recommend the box set edition. It's about 10x10 or 11x11 size hardcover book with the discs at the back of the book. Tons of neat photos in the book. Plus it's limited to 2000 copies and comes with a 2009 soundboard recording and pieces of a 1972 show.
