The film offers a unique insight into the world of Giger's creation and his private life. In addition to the interview with the artist himself, a considerable part of the documentary is formed by interviews with personalities such as Ernst Fuchs, Stanislav Grof and Debbie Harry. Though the authors do not avoid particular developmental periods of Giger's work, the main purpose was not to create the artist's biography. In this case, it is more likely considered to be an authentic perspective on the peculiar world of this Swiss surrealist artist. Written by Anonymous
It is not informative, nor is it in-depth or unique as the title would suggest. Being a fan of Giger's work, I was deeply disappointed with this so-called documentary. I'm not sure who this film would appeal to as there's no new information that most wouldn't already know, and there's not enough information for it to appeal to artists just being introduced to his work. The whole thing plays out like an amateur fan-made film with bits and pieces of ideas, in no particular order, set to a questionable soundtrack with brief commentary from fans and other artists. There's no real insight, and the whole thing plays out like a sloppy circle-jerk. The run time is a little less than an hour, in which I almost fell asleep multiple times. If you want to know more about HR Giger, read one of the books about him. If you don't have the time, doing a simple Google search would yield better results than this uninspired rubbish of a documentary.
