Something New to Die for

About This Movie

Something New to Die for is this wild dive into the Church of the SubGenius, a fascinating slice of fringe culture. The documentary's raw, frenetic editing style really captures that chaotic spirit; it’s all about high-speed cutting and media mashups that keep you on your toes. You get a lot of archival footage, from their own recruitment videos to bits of their MTV productions and interviews with the ever-charismatic Rev. Ivan Stang. It's like a collage of absurdity that reflects the church's themes of satire and anti-commercialism. The pacing is relentless, which, honestly, might be exhausting for some, but it totally fits the chaotic vibe they’re going for. A unique piece for those into countercultural movements.
