Gospel According To Philip K. Dick, (Region 1) - Steensland, MarkReleasedatum: 17 april 2001
Philip K. Dick may be science fiction's greatest writer ever. His novels and stories continue to inspire a generation of filmmakers, writers, technophiles and philosophers. But for the last ten years of his life, he inhabited a reality stranger than the fiction he created. Now in this, the first feature-length examination of the mind behind such Sci-Fi classics as 'Blade Runner' and 'Total Recall', hear first-hand from friends, fans, fellow writers such as Robert Anton Wilson ('The Illuminatus! Trilogy') - and even PKD himself - about the bizarre events that shaped his final decade: the mysterious break-in at this California home, the letter he thought would kill him, the series of visions he believed were Divinely inspired and the 8,000 page manuscripts he wrote in an effort to unlock the meaning behind it all. Combining interviews with animation, a pulsating techno soundtrack, and rare audio recordings of PKD himself, filmmakers Mark Steensland and Andy Massagli have created a portrait that Film Threat calls "A labor of love, designed to appeal to fans and novices alike."
