Twee oudere televisieproducenten ontvangen een videoband waarop is te zien wat er werkelijk gebeurde op de noodlottige 9e augustus in het huis van Roman Polanski. De avond dat Charles Mansons zwaar gestoorde cultfiguur inbrak in het huis van de beroemde regisseur. Maar wat de producenten niet weten is dat ze in de gaten worden gehouden door een op dezelfde wijze opererende bende die het op hen voorzien heeft...

Production

The film had a long and troubled production history. Director Jim Van Bebber personally financed the production starting in 1988, and then continued to shoot it sporadically on weekends and off days.

Despite support from various people, including members of the band Skinny Puppy, who provided a musical score (in the form of Download's Charlie's Family album) that was released separately years before the film itself, the film remained incomplete. It screened on video as a work-in-progress at a number of film festivals during that time.

In 2004, Dark Sky Films stepped in with the funds to finish the film properly, and it has since been released theatrically and on home video.

Phil Anselmo of Pantera, Down, and Superjoint Ritual provided his voice as Satan.


Classification

Despite not being banned in any country in the world, it is classified harshly in almost all countries of the world because of its graphic violence and sexuality.
