The greatest movie ever made..!

I gave it a 7.5 out of 10

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

"Spectres of the Spectrum" is one nut job of a movie, which purports to tell how the future can be told through the noise of the past. It is made up of every possible and impossible clip of old movies that deal with both real science and fake science. All of it is jammed together with an insane narration by three voices who go on babbling for nearly 91 minutes thus making an effort to tell the tabloid story of "secret rays coming from outer space"; these secret rays are actually electromagnetic ones and as we all know so well they contain minute amounts of mysterious formulas only true advocates of the space brothers would know. Now, some of this is fun, but after a half hour it begins to wane. Some may say more is better, but for this reviewer I can get more of a thrill from listening to Corla Pandit's ruptured organ music on my own while I thumb through the pages of a thrift store copy of Dianetics. Those who have a tendency to receive messages from wind blowing out of their TV sets will certainly have a great time watching this. Others will definitely want at least 8 or 9 martinis to make the adventure worthwhile.

This is movie is a great example of psychedelic info-tainment. Obviously done on a negligible budget, the filmmaker pulls the viewer into the raw ether of this electromagnetic cinema verite. He puts forth an amazing amount of sonic and visual information with an emphasis on the synchronous relationships already connecting the subject matter(?) being dealt with. Plus, he ties it together with a super-rad sci-fi plot line. I really like the some of the acting as well. As strange and amusing(novel) as this movie seems, it also has a strong visual progression that keeps it rolling along nicely. A great ride! I enjoy this movie more each time I watch it. Take back the spectrum!

This movie reminded me of Wax, or the Discovery of Television Among the Bees ( http://us.imdb.com/Title?0105791 ). The very loose plot was used to frame various footage that's related to electricity. Overly kitchy in many places. Sure, it's funny the first time when the main character (Boo Boo) imitates old-school sci-fi heroes, but after a while it becomes tiring.

Spectres of the Spectrum can't be described in words, it has to be seen on the screen. This film is comprised of original material, stock footage and public domain film clips to give the history of electric media and how it will change the future of life on Earth forever. It is a non-stop barrage of sights and sounds that will leave the audience gasping for breath in the end. Make sure not to miss this film, it will change the way you look at the way we communicate and who does the talking for us.
