Phillips sold copies of the poster for $15 each in the back of Maximum Rock n’ Roll, and raised the $12,000 he needed to make the documentary. It wasn’t naked, but it was very… hawkish.” “So I sent him 50 bucks and a photo my roommate took of me on the roof. “He said ‘I’ll do it for $50 for art supplies and a compromising photo of yourself,’” Phillips said. Allin and Gacy were friends, Phillips explained, and he wrote to the Killer Clown in jail to ask him to paint the poster for the movie.

The movie was funded, Phillips told the audience of Williamsburg’s Nitehawk Cinema Thursday night after screening of Hated, in part thanks to serial killer John Wayne Gacy. (Allegedly the Beastie Boys kept it on their tour bus, and Phish asked Phillips to do a movie on them after seeing it, a request he obliged.)


Most of the film footage of Allin’s too-graphic-for-Youtube antics come from Hangover director Todd Phillips documentary Hated: GG Allin and the Murder Junkies, a movie that has attained cult status among punk fans. During his notorious stage shows, Allin would regularly strip naked and defecate on stage, get in violent tussles with his audience, drink his female’s fans’ piss, and roll in broken glass. Allin, who died of a heroin overdose in 1993, makes Iggy Pop look like Katy Perry. If you’re unfamiliar with late rock n’roll terrorist GG Allin, born Jesus Christ Allin, suffice to say that almost nothing that dude did is safe to Google at work.
