Blasted!!! The Gonzo Patriots of Hunter S. Thompson

About This Movie

So, Blasted!!! is this offbeat documentary that captures a real blend of absurdity and reverence. It dives deep into the world of the Gonzo Patriots—these quirky folks across the U.S. who took Hunter S. Thompson's final wish to heart. You really get a sense of the atmosphere as these characters rally around the idea of firing his ashes from a cannon. The pacing's a bit erratic but in a way that keeps you intrigued. There’s this wild mix of patriotism and eccentricity, with practical effects that feel almost DIY. It’s a unique exploration of how people connect with Thompson's legacy, showcasing their dedication in a delightfully chaotic manner. Definitely a conversation starter, if nothing else.
