It's finally here! The Documentary Challenge is happening on Trash Epics and it's happening in June. So, get ready to learn something.
I'm going to go with the original rules set by challenge founder, AlcoholicNinja. Or at least what I can remember.
Any Documentary is worth 1 point.
A Documentary containing dark subject matter is worth 2 points
A Documentary about anything involving The Horror genre is worth 3 Points. And yes, I realize this isn't the Horror Board but thems the original rules.
First time viewings will get you an extra point
For any fans of Audio commentary tracks from dvds/blu-rays, those are basically Documentaries and should count as such and should fall under the same point system. Although no FTV point for those.
And even though Mockumentaries aren't Documentaries, we'll go ahead and count them in case there's anyone around here who is a fan of them.
We'll go with a 40 minute minimum.
Oh, and anyone caught using the term "Doco" for any reason in the month of June will be disqualified and possibly banned.
Suggestions? Recs? This is the discussion thread.

My one rec is I Don't Know Jack (2002). It's the fucked up story of Jack Nance's life and death. Sorry, no YouTube link. It used to be on there, but it's gone now.
