ROB ZOMBIE: New 'Tyrannosaurus Rex' Teaser Paintings Released

September 5, 2008

Rocker-turned-filmmaker Rob Zombie has posted two more teaser paintings (see below) for his next movie as screenwriter and director, titled "Tyrannosaurus Rex". The movie is rumored to be about a semi-professional wrestler who is being pursued by a "biker gang from hell."

The film is due out on August 28, 2009 and will follow Zombie's hit 2007 remake of "Halloween".

Zombie's upcoming animated film, "The Haunted World of El Superbeasto", is due out soon.

Rob Zombie recently issued a brief update on the progress of his next studio album. Zombie wrote online, "Well, we have for the first time ever written more songs than we need for an album. Everything isn't 100% finished, but everything is moving along great. No release date yet."

Zombie's next studio effort will follow up 2006's "Educated Horses", which was his third solo CD. He also released his first concert recording, "Zombie - Live", late last year. Although he's still apparently committed to making music, Zombie recently told Metal Edge magazine that the record labels are "dinosaurs waiting to die."

Rob said in an early 2008 conference call that he's not sure what future music distribution will look like. "There's got to be something else you can do because CDs, we know that's done," he said. "That's just done. And a download is just not that exciting. There's something missing when you — you can't walk up to someone and go, 'Oh, can you autograph my download?' There's got to be something else that can then happen. I just don't know. I mean, we're certainly trying to figure out what it is, because I want to figure out something special for the next musical release, whatever it will be."
