I find it sad that much of the country bases it’s movie selections on the opinions of hacks like Leonard Maltin. I can see why this wasn’t a mainstream success due to it’s waaaaaay out in left field mentality, but because of all the negativity this great film remains unseen by many. As people come around to the acting genius of both Johnny Depp and Benecio Del Toro (and they will), they will inevitably want to see their earlier works and then, finally, they will see what all the hype wasn’t about.

Terry Gilliam absolutely NAILED Hunter’s book. The visuals are incredible and alarming. The angles, strange and enticing. I heard that they filmed this movie without a script, just the book in hand. After reading the book, I believe trying to write a script for it could have severly dampened the impact.

Now for the drug use… If you are the type of person who realized that Fight Club wasn’t really about the fighting, then you will also realize that Fear & Loathing isn’t really about the drug use. According to the big dog movie critics only a stoner will appreciate this movie, which leads me to believe that only idiots become professional movie reviewers.

If you appreciate ground-breaking cinema, truly innovative directing, first-rate acting and are looking for something different… the ramblings of a gonzo journalist could be just the thing.

This DVD finally gives one of Terry Gilliam’s lesser-loved (but brilliant!) films the red carpet treatment. The commentary from Gilliam is crazed and passionate; Depp and Del Toro really show off their wit, charm, and intelligence along with producer Laila Nabulsi’s back-stage insight, and the last commentary is a rather odd and screwball one from Thompson himself. I won’t tell you a thing about the last commentary. You’ve got to buy this and check it out on your own. (Here’s a hint: ‘Screeee-ahhhh! Raaaaaaaagh!’ *other assorted sounds*)

The second disc is crammed with some great goodies as well - Depp reads letters written to/from Thompson. There’s a great BBC documentary showing HST and Ralph Steadman undertaking a trip from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. Another gem is a snippet from an audio-book recording of Fear & Loathing with Jim Jarmusch as Raoul Duke! All definitely worth it.

Fear and Loathing isn’t just a drug movie (as all the extras on the DVD will reiterate over and over again) - it’s a truthful, imaginative, twisted, and subversive take on the death of the most idealistic decade and generation. We get to see it all through the eyes of two renegade professionals, one a journalist and the other a lawyer, both fighting the good fight against scum and villainy.

We can’t stop here! THIS IS BAT COUNTRY.
