Bruce Sinofsky, co-director of the documentary was in the film I worked on last summer, "Montclair"...great guy, hell of an actor too.  I have to check out the doc.  I've heard great things about it.

Very cool.

I have watched Some Kind of Monster SO many times...

my only problem with it is that the alternate Dave Mustaine footage in the special features is better (in my opinion) than the sequence that actually made it into the film. It made him seem...well, kind of weak and pathetic. I think the part of the interview that was discarded was much more sympathetic to him as a person
