"In 1950s Baltimore, my parents were pretty open. They read The New York Times and listened to Woody Guthrie records, so you can imagine what kind of a household that was. They were immigrants from Scotland, and their taste included a lot of American folk music like, Woody and Pete Seeger, both of whom made children’s albums, so that’s what I would hear. Later, I heard their other songs, which obviously had a political slant and a story to tell and a point of view. That was something to realize at a young age: that a song could do that."

"A great mockumentary about a reunion of three folk bands that’s gently observed but also spot-on. I love how it quietly gets behind the scenes into the backbiting and the jealousy that leads up to their reunion concert, and I especially love the attitudes towards the shiny sellouts. The characters are so well done, too – the troubled former couple, the old-school trio, the Folksmen – but not every moment is mined for gags, which is what makes it work. You can tell everyone taking part genuinely loves music, and that’s why Christopher Guest always gets it right."

Just odd
Different vibe to the trailer
Nothing to see here
I saw a trailer for this last year and thought it looked a bit different to mainstream Horror. It didn't get much of a cinema run but as an Eco, environmental Horror wouldn't really appeal to the masses.
Unfortunately from the trailer it looked like it was going to be a rather creepy, errie Horror based on Folk law, old legends. Instead it was pretty basic crazy people in the woods gone a bit trippy. Nicely shot but the story was rather silly in the end.
