Bob and the Monster = $10

Documentary, USA, 89 min., Chicago premiere

Directed by Keirda Bahruth

Of all the drug-crazed lunatics who populated the Los Angeles post-punk scene in the 1980s, none was crazier than self-destructive Thelonious Monster found and frontman Bob Forrest. South by Southwest 2011 selection Bob and the Monster tells the fascinating story of how he ended up one of the most important drug counselors in the country, through interviews with fellow scenesters like Flea and Courtney Love, a wealth of archival film and video, amazing animations, and Bob's own candid revelations.
