Documentary - Metallica: Some Kind Of Monster

Due for theatrical release next year, Some Kind of Monster follows Hetfield, drummer Lars Ulrich and guitarist Kirk Hammett to the brink of disaster as they fought, often among themselves, to make their latest album, St. Anger. Berlinger and Sinofsky -- who made the acclaimed documentaries Brother's Keeper (1992) and Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills (1996) -- shot 1,200 hours of footage in two years of the band members in the studio, in creative and business meetings, and in intensive group-therapy sessions with therapist Phil Towle.

"This is not a film about Metallica -- it's a film about relationships," says Ulrich. He believes that the almost daily presence of cameras was integral in keeping the band from breaking up. "We could not lie. If we did, the cameras would capture it. They were like a truth serum."

No word yet if Ulrich will choke to death on his tongue soon.
