REVIEW EXCERPT - "THE MOTHMAN'S PHOTOGRAPHER"
"A documentary news series describing Colvin's first-hand experiences with the famous Mothman craze of WV, circa 1967. Colvin is...a crazy, neo-hillbilly genius who has had a quiet, but steady, impact on at least three generations of disaffected American film nerds. His spare, understated documentaries on the WTO protests and the McVeigh execution (which we were proud to sponsor) spoke to Gens 'Y' and 'Z.' [But] his most important legacy, his 20-year study of "slackers" in Austin, Texas, literally helped touch off the whole Gen-X craze. Colvin's obsessive videotaping in mid-80s Austin became the stylistic model for the cult hit "Slacker" (shot by his friends Richard Linklater and Lee Daniel)...Colvin helped an entire generation become conscious of its place in history... In the Mothman's Photographer, Colvin is again helping raise consciousness, this time by looking into the paranormal aspects of his own reality, as well as the realities of other sub-Boomers...Definitely two thumbs up!" -Ben Camp, Taos Public Radio
"Truly mindblowing stuff. I started watching...and can't stop. Very engrossing." -Adam Gorightly, conspiracy author
Note: even though this series breaks every rule by being extremely long, with no fancy editing or effects, it has consistently been shown to keep people glued to their seats for days at a time. If you don't believe us, buy one and see for yourself. It's magic!
