Trama
The title is self-explanatory: this 1997 documentary plays up the tenuous connection and brief friendship that once flowered between Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys and the psychopathic, homicidal Manson Family, headlined by songwriter-turned-cult leader (and mass murderer) Charles Manson. The film begins with a chronicle of The Beach Boys' rise to commercial glory, placing the ensemble into an unusual context with very rarely-screened behind-the-scenes footage of the artists, then expands its focus to chart the interpersonal connections between Church of Satan leader Anton La Vey, experimental filmmaker Kenneth Anger, Wilson and, ultimately, Manson

THE BEACH BOYS AND THE SATAN puts the Beach Boys rise to success into context with rarely seen footage of the band, while it exposes the Summer of Love's darkest side and investigates the connections between some of the most controversial characters of that period (Anton La Vey, Kenneth Anger, and Brian Wilson) and their connection to the Manson Family.
