Nor is it a Manson biopic.
It’s a family biopic.
Hence the title."

Kosar explained toShock Till You Drop:
“A very unconventional unit, but a family nonetheless.
It is not a horror film, though the subject is inherently horrific.
This won’t be a slasher film, but it won’t gloss over the violence either.
It’s a film about an American taboo that has never been dramatized with any balance or accuracy.
Bugliosi-based films accurately deal with the prosecution of ‘the Family.’
My film will concern the family itself.
Who they were and what their lives were like with Manson.”
But if Kosar harnesses that into something constructive, all is forgiven.
The story’s certainly there, even prior to the murders.
Eventually these devotees reportedly acted as servants to Manson and his friend, Dennis Wilson of The Beach Boys.
I like Kwanten for the role.
His abs alone inspire the urge to declare allegiance.
