Glenn Danzig was the guest on Full Metal Jackie's weekend radio show. It's been a busy time for the musician of late, as he's directed a dark new film called Verotika while also polishing off his long anticipated Elvis covers album, Danzig Sings Elvis.
Jackie spoke with Glenn about both projects, as well as his continued run of Misfits reunion shows, his thoughts on touring and also gets a positive message from the rocker on mortality. Check out the chat in full below. Let's talk about your directorial debut premiering at Cinepocalypse. What similarly, though telling stories through songs, do you notice while making a movie? It's not a lot. It's much different. Doing a feature film is a lot of work. So, if you do a feature film, you really gotta love doing films because it's a lot of work, and it's a big chunk outta your life.
So, pretty much, since last July, I've been working on this film. Well, yeah. Doing all the pre-production and then filming it. We filmed for about three weeks, and then it's all the editing after that, and then the effects, and then going in to post and doing color and sound and all the other stuff.
It's just a long process. Now that you've gone through all of it and it's at this point would you do it again? Did you enjoy it? There are things I enjoyed about it, and there are things I didn't enjoy about it. But, I said I think I'm gonna do three movies and then decide if I want to keep doing it.
So you're not going to take it from just the first one that you're doing. I'm gonna do three. I'm already getting ready to do my next one which is a vampire spaghetti western. Everybody's vampires in it. So after that I'll see what I wanna do. Then I'm gonna sit and decide if I wanna keep doing it or not.
