What critics compared Helter Skelter to
Add Vincent Bugliosi's Helter Skelter and Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (still in the production pipeline) to the list of samplings.
Ah, but remember: This is a film named after one of the Beatles’ most melancholy of ballads, not “Helter Skelter.”
It starts like Helter Skelter and ends like The Long and Winding Road in a lachrymose pool of Richard Curtis cuteness but it never loses its surreal heart and sense of absurdity.
