I still contend that if this were 20, 30 years back when Smilin' Chuckie was still alive, his presence MIGHT be still scary. But unlike, say, Jack the Ripper or the Zodiac Guy (who might be Ted Cruz), Manson was a known quantity basically from day one, which takes a lot of the scare factor out of him. He just can't haunt like those epic figures, no matter how the Boomers try to make him an icon.
he's been around a while. His filmography is way longer and more varied than you'd think, and includes stuff like Zero Dark Thirty and Minority Report in addition to a lot of Marvel stuff due to his exceedingly minor place in the MCU.

Manson isn’t scary. Squeaky Fromme and her ilk, the type that have been so easily manipulated into being murder puppets, are scary.
"Man's Son" is some solid wordplay.
So of course, as the cleverest thing about the movie, they had to drop it in favor of something excessively literal.
Is Frank Grillo really big enough that his son should be a Nepo baby?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Frank Grillo's son got to direct this Frank Grillo movie because Frank Grillo is his dad.
Still kind of surprising, though I guess Frank Grillo's been around long enough that he can call in some favors for his kid....
