Quote:
Super Duper Alice Cooper is the twisted tale of a teenage Dr Jekyll whose rock n roll Mr Hyde almost kills him. It is the story of Vincent Furnier, preacher's son, who struck fear into the hearts of parents as Alice Cooper, the ultimate rock star of the bizarre. From the advent of Alice as front man for a group of Phoenix freaks in the 60s to the hazy decadence of celebrity in the 70s to his triumphant comeback as 80s glam metal godfather, we will watch as Alice and Vincent battle for each others' souls. The is the first ever 'doc opera' - a dizzying blend of documentary archive footage, animation and rock opera that will cement forever the legend of Alice Cooper.

I was never a particular fan of the band myself, but Super Duper Alice Cooper turned out to be a fascinating documentary.

I'm a sucker for biography at the best of times, but the film technique used in creating this doc was fantastic. No talking heads - - just a straight through life story told with file footage, Ken Burns-style photo play, extensive footage from the John Barrymore version of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, and narration by Vincent Furnier himself.


28 out of 5.

BTW, Super Duper Alice Cooper would make an ideal double bill with Supermensch: The Legend Of Shep Gordon - - watching this pair will grant you a full credit in 1970's Entertainment Biz 101.
