Amazing documentary on an unknown Metal band that should be legends BUT DOC ends too soon!I've never heard of the group Pentagram before the Documentary, and I was amazed how incredible they were in the early 70's doing metal as good at the same time parallel to Black Sabbath over in England. Truly some of the best "lost" classic metal Rock music most hard rock fans have never heard. I did have several problems with the Documentary itself, some spoilers ahead. I would of preferred the beggining of the film be 10 minutes of narrated history of the band and Bobby all together chronologically from the late 60's when Bobby was in a band to the 70"s with footage and photos and band members recounting everything THEN bring us to the present. In the film we get snippets of the past of photos and footage and music all over the place in a mess, I would of liked to of gotten to know the band and the man before we see what he is today. It was unbearable watching Bobby zombified on drugs his couch in his 80 year old parents house where he lived through the 70's till now. I didn't know the direction the film would take and I didn't want to watch this guy rotting and have to watch him like this for another hour and twenty minutes without knowing if he redeems himself by the films end or at least a happy ending. Bobby looked older and in far worse condition than his 80 year old parents! There are a few dead spots in the film, in particular when the film makers decide that 10 minutes of the 80 year old parents talking in a very slow nature (in their cramped dim lit house just sitting there) about how messed up Bobby is doesn't bring the story to an almost complete stop. I think cutting more photos and footage back and forth and maybe having them only talk for a few minutes getting right to the point of things in a bearable way would of worked better. Lastly, the movie ends with Bobby still not recording the new album we hear about though out the whole movie! The last 15 mintues of the film seem like the middle of the movie because that's when he starts doing live gigs again after 15 years of many failed attempts AND he tours! Where is that footage? Then we get two mintues of him getting married with a photo still of him and his wife and one with his wife with NEWBORN! Bobby looks at least twenty years younger when he gets it together again with music and a family in his late 50's but we get a few minutes of this time with a couple photographs and no conclusion in regards to the album that was eventually made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course I am guessing his wife also did not want to have her family life on film which is why we get just photos of important events that bring Bobby back to life off drugs finally after 30-40 years. Could of been a better film, but luckily there was plenty of material that was interesting enough to pull off a half decent movie on an unknown musician whose music should of been heard by millions and tragically never was..Score: 5/5

Absolutely InspirationalThe only word I can come up with to accurately describe the rockumentary "Last Days Here" (as well as the Pentagram compilation album "First Daze Here") is 'inspirational'. This movie not only focuses on an amazing and amazingly underrated band, but it also has at its center one of the most human stories you're likely to see in rock 'n' roll. Telling the classic tale of a self-destructive rockstar wasting away to obscurity as a result of an impressive catalogue of drug addictions, as well as his opportunity at redemption (spurred on, encouraged and supported by a diehard fan that just couldn't stand to sit by and see it all go to waste, a beautiful sentiment in its own right), it takes a premise we've all seen time and time again and portrays the actual human side to this sort of fable. Some times painful to watch (it has just about as intense a depiction of real drug addiction as one could probably ever convey on film), some times absolutely heartbreaking (like watching a man kill himself agonizingly slowly over the course of decades, as well as the toll it takes on the people around him, his loving devoted parents as well as his fellow musicians), and, ultimately, reaffirmingly triumphant. Overall, just a wonderful story as well as a very well executed documentary. It just oozes love all over, and is more powerful than any work of fiction in recent memory. I really cannot emphasize enough how moved I was by this movie. The focus of the film is the lead singer and only really consistent member of the band, a flawed man who has more problems than you could count, but obviously a good guy at heart. And as you get to know him more you stop judging him and start forgiving him (much like his saintly parents), and eventually you're rooting for him, completely invested in this man's quest at redemption and the realization of a dream. Such care was taken to make a balanced story here, not just objective, but understanding. It certainly helps to be a fan of or enjoy the music, but it is by no means necessary, as this is a story just about any human being can relate to, it just happens to be one amplified to nearly Shakespearian levels in this case. To sum up, great documentary, amazing band, wonderful people, and an inspiring tale. 5 Stars.Score: 5/5
The Devil & GermantownIt plays out like a lot of rock documentaries about closet & basement rockers who were under appreciated, under developed and an underground influence to many - like the documentary "The Devil & Daniel Johnston". But unlike other "should've" "would've" "could've" documented rock tragedies, the intense and tense situations of a volatile junkie musician and a music junkie's dragon-chasing determination to see the band put back together and put out a new album is as emotional, as suspenseful, appropriately timed & paced and as poetic as any well written drama. It kept me interested, kept me rooting and kept me cautiously hopeful until the very end. And even though I was personally skeptical, critical and judgmental of all the key player's agenda and personal reasons for being apart of this rockers life, career and business, in the end I was grateful - that for whatever reason- they made it happen and had the patience to see this movie through, to see Bobby through and to see the music through..Score: 5/5
