Movie synopsis
As American energy firms look for new sources of petroleum, natural gas has become an increasingly important part of their portfolios, especially after the 2005 Energy Policy Act (created with the participation of Dick Cheney, a former executive with energy giants Halliburton) removed environmental protection restrictions against hydraulic fracturing drilling (known in the trade as "fracking"). Since then, gas drilling has been sharply on the rise, and when Josh Fox, a theatrical director and filmmaker, was offered $100,000 for the gas rights to family property on the Delaware River Basis in Pennsylvania, he was curious about the possible effects of drilling. Fox set out to talk to other property owners about what he could expect, and their answers startled him -- fracking taints water sources near drilling sites, and many households have discovered their water is not only undrinkable after gas drilling, it's even flammable. It turns out this is just the tip of the iceberg of the environmental damage done by reckless gas drilling, and in his documentary GASLAND, Fox travels to 34 states and talks to dozens of property owners and environmental experts on the under-reported menace of fracking and the truth about the dangers of natural gas. GASLAND was an official selection at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival.

Editorial reviews

4 stars out of 5 -- "Fox conveys it vividly, contrasting natural beauty with the despoliation wrought by industrial plunder."
Total Film (12/28/2010)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[D]irector Josh Fox assembles his case with a mix of hard evidence and agit-prop poetry..."
Empire - Empire Staff (01/21/2011)

"Fox builds up a riveting portrait of near-apocalyptic environmental damage and a corporate mindset willing to ruin water sources irrevocably for the sake of a few years' profit."
Sight and Sound - Sam Davies (02/01/2011)

Gasland ( DVD, 2010)

Review For: Gasland (DVD, 2010)

The Academy Award Nominee's filmmaker J. Fox was offered $100,000 from a large oil conglomerate to drill for natural gas. Mr. Fox discovers that this "discovery" of gas stretches over 34 STATES! The methods used to extract the gas are in question. That method is called "fracking". A "Must-See"!

eyeopening; frightening expose'; the tip of the iceberg--BAN FRACKING!

Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.
Review For: Gasland (DVD, 2010)

Gasland is eye-opening and informative. Very scary in terms of what the oil and gas industry is doing to our natural resources. Even scarier when you look at the drilling maps across the country in terms of the toxic and hazardous chemicals that are being used and are polluting our ground waters. Check out the free Ted-X (The Endocrine Disruption Exchange)documentary about health hazards of these chemicals with real reports from industrial accidents which should be viewed after Gasland. Check out the High Country News article in which EPA links fracking with ground water and aquifer contamination in Wyoming after a 3 year study. Check out the increasing incidence of earthquakes in areas where fracking is occuring. Worst of all, why is Royal Dutch Shell and other foreign corporations drilling and extracting our minerals for export to other countries? Are we the new developing nation to be exploited? What is Congress thinking? Start with Gasland. It's great!

IF YOU USE ANY WATER FOR ANY REASON...WATCH THIS DOCUMENTARY!!!!!

Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.
Review For: Gasland (DVD, 2010)

A FANTASTIC documentary!!!!! I'm actually sickened by each and every gas drilling commercial that is a self-propagandized "feel good" portrayal of how eco-friendly they are and how good for the environment and how much money they pump into local communities...gee, seems the only thing they neglect is telling the public is that once they start "fracking" everyone around them is able to set their water on fire!!! Actual FIRE!!! Just by turning on the kitchen water faucet and holding a flame to it. I urge EVERYONE to watch this documentary and share it with anyone and everyone you know or love.

It truly scares the hell out of me that this is happening in the 21st century!

Best Documentary EVER!!!

Review For: Gasland (DVD, 2010)

I can say, there was not a single thing I did not about this documentary. I wish everyone in the U.S. would take the time to watch this film. Very informative, makes you want to get up and make a difference. I can only hope it has some sort of impact on our government.

Review For: Gasland (DVD, 2010)

This should be required viewing in High school. Anyone whose watched it is amazed how little we really know about the energy we use and at what cost. Never boring!
