| | Marcos' Beatles Page - Helter Skelter |
 | | Most British listeners were aware that a helter skelter was a spiral fairground slide but Charles Manson, who heard the White Album in December 1968 thought that the Beatles were warning America of a racial conflict that was 'coming down fast'. | | | The concept for 'Helter Skelter' came from a music paper's rave review of a new single by the Who. | | | Paul wanted to write something that really did 'freak people out' and, when the Beatles first recorded 'Helter Skelter' in July 1968, they did it in one take which was almost half an hour long. |

| | Amazon.ca: Helter Skelter (1976): DVD |
| | Based on the best-selling Vincent Bugliosi book of the same name, Helter Skelter is a made-for-TV account of the investigation and prosecution of Charles Manson (Steve Railsback), who was convicted of leading a group of followers (known as "The Family") to murder seven people in California, including actress Sharon Tate. | | | Adapted from the book by Vincent Bugliosi, Helter Skelter is a stellar docudrama that details the Manson family murders and the subsequent trial. | | | Helter Skelter was originally shown as a two-part CBS television movie that ran 194 minutes, but beware the video version released in the 1980s -- it comes in at a significantly chopped 119 minutes. |

| | Prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi wrote a book about the cased entitled "Helter Skelter." Later, a made-for-TV movie about the case used the same title. | | | The Family supposedly thought the Beatles' song "Helter Skelter" (and the rest of the album) was about the apocalyptic war. | | | Atkins seemed unclear on what the motive was but the prosecutors said it was a race war by the name of "Helter Skelter." Supposedly, the black population was going to rise up and wipe out everyone else. |

| | "In England, home of the Beatles, 'helter skelter' is another name for a slide in an amusement park," Manson prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi tells us in his book about the case, Helter Skelter. | | | "Helter Skelter," which appeared on the Beatles' White Album, was Paul McCartney's attempt to outrock Pete Townshend of the Who. | | | He thought Helter Skelter was the coming race war and the White Album was a call to arms. |

| | Chrysti the Wordsmith > Radio Scripts > Helter Skelter II |
| | But in 1974, the expression helter skelter was given a sensational new life as the title of a book featuring the lives and deeds of the Manson Family, a California communal group who followed the teachings of their cult guru Charles Manson. | | | Convinced that apocalyptic prophesies were encoded in the songs recorded by the Beatles on their 1968 "White Album," Manson took the title of the song "Helter Skelter" to be a synonym for the coming armageddon. | | | Obeying the supposed "instructions" recorded in the song, Manson ordered his followers to commit random murders in the LA area, and to graffiti the words "helter skelter" at the crime scenes. |

| | Because of this connection, Los Angeles assistant District Attorney Vincent Bugliosi, who led the prosecution of Manson and the other killers, named his best-selling book about the murders Helter Skelter. | | | The lyrics of the song are a hallucinogenic evocation of using a helter skelter in a children's playground, ironically contrasting the aggression and volume of the music. | | | Manson referred to this future war as "Helter Skelter." The words "Healter Skelter" [sic] were also written in blood at the scene of one of the murders committed by the Manson Family. |

| | Helter Skelter, based on the book co-written by prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi (also the source for a 1976 CBS aired two part mini-series centered on the investigation that brought convicted killer Charles Manson to justice), provides a chilling look at Manson and how he controlled his twisted young family. The cult. | | | Helter Skelter is a great introduction to anyone wanting to learn about Charles Manson and the murders his Family committed, but if you want the real truth stick to the book by Vincent Bugliosi as this remake feels just a little too modernized. | | | The cinematography is absolutely beautiful in Helter Skelter and what makes it work is not only the rustic desert exterior shots, but the murder encased in a solarized color palette that really manages to capture the essence of anguish, fear, and fatality all in one slow incapacitating shot. |
