I Am Sam Kinison on DVD

I Am Sam Kinison DVD I Am Sam Kinison is a feature-length documentary film exploring the life and legacy of shock comic Sam Kinison, a former Pentecostal preacher turned stand-up comic who repurposed his pulpit-honed chops to the brazen rock 'n' roll world of MTV-era comedy. Following a steep trajectory to fame, excess, despair and near-redemption, Sam meets a sudden and early death when struck by a drunk driver in 1992. - Using extensive clips from his comedy specials that cover some of his favorite topics including marriage, women, homosexuality, God, religion and world hunger Sam tells much of his story himself, with added perspective provided by a dynamic cast of friends, family, and fellow comics. Sam's raucous story screams it's way through a life and a wild career that shattered the status quo and changed comedy forever.
