The stories behind the Apocalypse Now production just keep getting weirder and weirder, and while you’d think that simply decorating the Kurtz compound wouldn’t be that bizarre, in this episode I’ll be telling you some crazy stories including a revolt from an army of monkeys and the entire crew nearly getting arrested for decorating the set with real dead bodies. But first, a story about how these guys ruined a whole day of shooting.

Thanks so much for your continued support!

Another amazing video from CinemaTyler! These are so fascinating and done with total excellence.

Hey Tyler, Wow, two videos of ''Apocalypse Now'' back in a row, I love it. I loved this video, there is so much information that I wasn't familiar with. For example, the story you talk about of all the trash that got dumped on the set is insane. I mean, I believe it, it's just crazy to hear this happened. The Kurtz set is incredible to see in my opinion, it's so big. And it's crazy to realize that they had to rebuild certain parts of the sets due to Olga the typhoon. I also wanted to mention that you mentioned beautiful about the loss of Coppola's wife Eleanor Coppola. I feel the same about how you talk about her. I also was very sad to hear about this news. And yes, her book ''Notes of Apocalypse Now'' is for me as well one of the books from which I got most of the information of the production. And last, I am so glad you mentioned the crazy story of the dead bodies. I sent you this information some time ago. Or perhaps you found it by yourself as well. I was just blown away when producer Gray Fredrickson talked about it. So yes, thank you again for these videos. Each time when one of them gets released, I celebrate it as a special day. Best, Jacob

Dumping garbage everywhere was such a crazy decision. Not just for having to work in the stench, but I wonder where Kurtz's people would be buying stuff with packaging. I feel like it would make more sense if they were farming or something. Besides that, I think the Kurtz compound is definitely up there with the sets I would most want to see in real life. Thanks so much for your help! I hope people aren't getting sick of Apocalypse Now because I have another one on the way!

Tired of your videos? No, not at all. I love them, every time you upload a new video, I celebrate it. However, I do think that this series is coming to an end. I bet that some videos of Brando are going to be featured. And perhaps one about the alternated ending and one about how the film was received. I am just excited by any of them, I wish you all the best with them,
