	Helter Skelter
		Helter Skelter, based on the book co-written by prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi (also the source for a 1976 CBS aired two part mini-series centered on the investigation that brought convicted killer Charles Manson to justice), provides a chilling look at Manson and how he controlled his twisted young “family.” The cult.
		The cinematography is absolutely beautiful in Helter Skelter and what makes it work is not only the rustic desert exterior shots, but the murder encased in a solarized color palette that really manages to capture the essence of anguish, fear, and fatality all in one slow incapacitating shot.
		Helter Skelter is a great introduction to anyone wanting to learn about Charles Manson and the murders his Family committed, but if you want the real truth stick to the book by Vincent Bugliosi as this remake feels just a little too modernized.

	Marcos' Beatles Page - Helter Skelter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Most British listeners were aware that a helter skelter was a spiral fairground slide but Charles Manson, who heard the White Album in December 1968 thought that the Beatles were warning America of a racial conflict that was 'coming down fast'.
		In the scenario that Manson had developed, the Beatles were the four angels mentioned in the New Testament book of Revelation who, through their songs, were telling him and his followers to prepare for the coming holocaust by escaping to the desert.
		Manson referred to this future uprising as 'Helter Skelter' and it was the daubing of these words in blood at the scene of one of the murders that became another vital clue in the subsequent investigation.

		The songs that had the most impact on him were “Piggies” and the infamous “Helter Skelter.” “Piggies”, Manson believed, was about how the rich people prevent the common people from reaching the height that they can.

	The Straight Dope: Why did Charles Manson think "Helter Skelter" was about a race war? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		"Helter Skelter," which appeared on the Beatles' White Album, was Paul McCartney's attempt to outrock Pete Townshend of the Who.
		But it had more energy than most McCartney compositions of the period, and the descending refrain "helter skelter" lent it an edginess that made it stick in the mind.
		He thought Helter Skelter was the coming race war and the White Album was a call to arms.

		THAT book was crazy, this man, an ex con who did time with Manson before the murders, visited him for I think 10 years compiling interviews and all this information on him and the murders.
		This book was published in 1988, and even then, after all that time, Manson was still trying/wanting to put the blame on the girls, saying they wanted to commit copycat murders for Bobby Beausoliel, (Hinman murder) and that he (Manson) only 'helped' them when they couldn't get it together.
		I noticed Helter Skelter was on yesterday too, hehe we had just gotten home from shopping and it was like almost over but I still had to sit there and watch the last half hour of it.

		Helter Skelter is not merely a spellbinding murder case and courtroom drama but also, in the words of The New Republic, a "social document of rare importance."
		Bugliosi’s Helter Skelter is by far the most complete and thrilling account of the Manson murders.
		Helter Skelter is a wonderfully compelling story that brought you inside Charles Mansons' mind in certain respects.

	Helter Skelter - Worst Family TV Show of the Week
		Based on Vincent Bugliosi's book of the same title, CBS chose to focus this adaptation on Manson and the depraved power he commanded over his "family." Though it had only mild language there was some strong sexual innuendo and incredibly disturbing themes.
		At the heart of Manson's delusion was the belief that he was Jesus Christ and that he was responsible for igniting an apocalyptic race war called Helter Skelter.
		He also gave them a purpose in the launching of Helter Skelter and a certain power in the belief that one day they would be the only white people left to rule the world.

	NetRhythms: Book reviews
		This new book discusses the lives and work of just nine (male) singer-songwriters who "expanded the standard pop blueprint" with their songs and "made a significant contribution to rock music's coming-of-age".
		By the time this book came to be written (2001), five out of the nine had died, and eight of the nine had been, or were in the process of being, rediscovered, although in all cases their music still obstinately remains the province of relatively small groups of enthusiasts.
		The book also includes many rare and previously unseen photos, and all in all proves a genuinely revealing account of this hitherto elusive "Great Lost Byrd" and his underrated and overshadowed musical personality; its only serious flaw is the lack of any kind of discography and/or sessionography.

		The film Helter Skelter is based on prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi’s 1974 book of the same name (New York: Bantam Books, 1974), in which he details the grisly Tate and LaBianca slayings of August 1969 and the subsequent trial and convictions of the murderers, Charles Manson and four of his followers.
		As Bugliosi does in his book, the film begins with flashbacks to when the bodies were first discovered, the activities of the Manson Family shortly after the murders, and the questioning of suspects and witnesses by police before linking Manson to the slayings.
		The family is portrayed in both the book and the film as filthy, drug-crazed hippies, while Manson is depicted as an insane guru with the ability to “program” human beings.

		In the book, Bugliosi quotes several of Manson's followers who claim that Manson controlled their thoughts and writes that he believes Manson "hypnotized" The Family.
		Because Bugliosi wrote the book upon which Tom Gries' 1976 film is based, Manson would perhaps declare the film a perpetuator of the myth as well.
		The monologue, transcribed in Helter Skelter the book, is taken straight from what was recorded by the court sternographer.

		Seven years later, CBS brought the book of Vincent Bugliosi, the successful prosector of the case, to the screen, and this version remains the definitive "entertainment" piece of the Manson saga, far superior to its 2004 remade counterpart.
		The song "Helter Skelter" was, originally, a 27 minute track but was eventually cut down to 5 minutes because of time limits on radio airplay.
		In fact, the term "helter skelter" is a British word for a carnival ride.

		Adapted from the book by Vincent Bugliosi, Helter Skelter is a stellar docudrama that details the Manson family murders and the subsequent trial.
		Using a documentary style with voice-over narration to keep the story moving along, director Tom Gries perfectly captures the horrifying details of the case, including Charles Manson's eerie, brainwashed followers and his belief that he was receiving messages to start a race war from The Beatles' White Album.
		Helter Skelter was originally shown as a two-part CBS television movie that ran 194 minutes, but beware the video version released in the 1980s -- it comes in at a significantly chopped 119 minutes.

		Again, the source material utilized is the 1976 book Helter Skelter by Vincent Bugliosi.
		By opening with a new version of the classic Beatles tune, "Helter Skelter" this new revisiting of the cruel, infamous bloody events of the Charles Manson murders retains its ties to the original TV movie Helter Skelter and the period of time in which the actual events occurred.
		The song "Helter Skelter" is reprised again later, which then leads to the penultimate track, which again is dominated by the murky synth tones with some extra assistance from the solo female vocalist.

	Snow: Helter Skelter
		Based upon Vincent Bugliosi and Curt Gentry's book about Charles Manson and his trial, Helter Skelter had already been turned into a movie in 1976 with Tom Gries directing.
		That time round the music was by Billy Goldenberg (and not, despite what the IMDB would have you believe, The Beatles - their song of the same name was featured in the movie) and this time it's another tv composing veteran, Mark Snow, given the chance to score.
		But more abject bleakness is never more than a minute or two away (and some of the bleakest of all comes, strangely, with the newly recorded version of the song "Helter Skelter" sung by Glenn A. Jordan).
