GLENN DANZIG Talks About His Upcoming Movie

February 23, 2005

Glenn Danzig recently told the Chicago Tribune that his upcoming movie will be "full of zombies, snake rituals and some of the most gruesome scenes ever put on film." In a phone interview, he elaborated, "Some crazy voodoo rituals like you've never seen before. Bodies being burned alive. Hands being chopped off while they're still alive. There'll be decapitations, of course."

He laughed. "It's gonna be pretty wild."

In addition to fronting DANZIG, Glenn runs the comic book company Verotik. He's also working on a script based on "Ge Rouge", the richly dark and violent comic series he started writing eight years ago.

"It helps me stay excited about doing music and then going back and doing the comics — I've been doing that now for over 10 years," he told the Chicago Tribune. "It helps me stay excited about doing all the projects I do. If you do the same thing over and over, eventually, you're going to get bored of it. And I would hate to get bored of music."

Regarding the group's latest album, 2004's "Circle of Snakes", Danzig said, "[The sound] hasn't really changed that much, but 'Circle of Snakes' was a little more stripped down and that was a conscious effort on my part. I wanted to clear the air — it's the first record I wanted to do that's not part of a seven-part cycle. Some elements I hadn't played with before, like double kick-drum. But we tuned down as low as we've ever tuned down."
