Lake of Fire (Movie Watch)

"Lake of Fire," a documentary, directed by Tony Kaye, the man behind "American History X", is a stark look at all sides of the abortion debate, including footage of procedures, the killings of doctors who have performed them

Kaye has been best remembered as the guy who sued the Directors Guild for $200 million, to change his name to Humpty Dumpty on the "American History X" credits after his cut was rejected. When his credit change request was denied, Kaye admitted to trying to change his name legally to Mr. Dumpty out of spite. In addition, he would refuse to talk to people on the phone, and when he needed to make an urgent phone call, he would go up to a phone booth, dial a random number & ask a total stranger to speak on his behalf. I guess that's part of his genius or is down fall.


Lake of Fire was made for more than $6 million over about 16 years, being released theatrically on October 3rd, with a possible three to four hour TV version to follow.
