That could be weird.

Agreed I too am interested in that aspect.
Also I noticed that the actor that is playing Manson in this (Damon Herriman) is also playing Charles Manson in David Fincher's Mindhunter series for Netflix ( for season 2) . Just though that was interesting that they used the same actor.
Also thanks guys for embedding the teaser for me! I appreciate it. :-) [Reply]

Shit, you know it's coming. It's probably partly the reason he did this movie, tbh. Lol [Reply]

Have they cast for Mrs. LaBianca?
Honestly, I don't see how you can write in the murders without turning this into a horror film.

DiCaprio's character is said to live on the same street as Polanski/Tate. His character is also the star of a western tv show or movie, so it might be that the Manson Family who lived on a filming ranch is encountered via the western setting as well. Manson and his crew also mingled in music and film industry circles by way of Dennis Wilson and a few young actors and writers. The murders are said to be a backdrop for the story, not the primary story. I'm not sure if that means we'd see it or not. [Reply]

LOL ... It's over-the-top creepy just reading that much.

It's the one reason I'm afraid of this movie...seriously...QT loves him some shocker violence. Though, this would be a recreation of an actual murder of a real person in recent history...maybe he'd be a little less...Tarantino about it.
I'll wait till I hear more about it after it comes out. [Reply]
