The Bowler and American Juggalo



The Bowler is a great short documentary about an old bowling hustler named Rocky Salemmo.  It's hard to believe a character like this exists in real life but here he is.  And he has a ton of good stories to tell.  It's only about 14 minutes long but it's some of the best 14 minutes of documentary I've seen.




The reason why I put these two together is because they were done by the same guy, Sean Dunne.  This is his latest one and it's another very well done short documentary.  He turns his focus to juggalos this time.  And for those that don't know, a juggalo is a hardcore Insane Clown Posse fan.  They like to put face paint on, drink faygo, party and say "whoop whoop".  I really like that Dunne gives these people a fair shake and lets them speak for themselves so you can draw your own impressions.  This one is a tad longer at 23 minutes but just like The Bowler it's well worth your time.
