So there are a ton of music documentaries out there and I have barely scratched the surface here. I am picking 5 that I really enjoyed.

With Halloween fast approaching we thought we would list some flicks that scared the pants off us. Some of these are oldies but goodies nonetheless. For me, Silent Scream from 1980 just about sent me to therapy. My Mom, God bless her soul, took me to see this thing in the theater when I was...
