So, 'King Cohen' dives into the wild and often unpredictable career of Larry Cohen, a filmmaker who really did his own thing. The documentary feels like a conversation with those who knew him and a deep dive into his work. It balances interviews and clips from his films, like the surreal 'It's Alive' and the satirical 'The Stuff.' What I love is how it doesn’t shy away from the practical effects that gave his movies their unique punch. The pacing is relaxed yet engaging, allowing you to fully appreciate the themes Cohen tackled—social commentary wrapped in genre work. It’s the sort of film that’ll give you a new perspective on a guy who was never afraid to push boundaries.
