Guru, The Mad Monk - 1970

Well, I had to get a clunker on the new boxset eventually. Guru was pretty lame.

First of all, this is not THAT bad. It's not even 1 hour, it's amateur as fuck with terrible actors, but I am sure it has a following of cult weirdos.

Andy Milligan is yet another little known cult filmmaker in this vast movie landscape we live in. He had loose connections to Andy Warhol, he made off off off Broadway plays that got him into making horror, and these eventually had followings.

Guru is about what one would expect given this knowledge. Terrible actors delivering awful dialogue as they wear clearly theatrical robes... Guru borders so bad it's great territory, but I wasn't in the mood for it.

Not necessarily a clunker for everyone, Guru is about a 1.5 star film for me.
