ROB ZOMBIE Making Progress With Animated Film

November 8, 2005

Launch Radio Networks reports: Rob Zombie's second effort as a feature film director, "The Devil's Rejects", arrives on DVD today (Tuesday, November 8) in a special edition packed with extras, including a two-and-a-half hour documentary on the making of the movie. While Zombie has not yet announced what his next live-action feature will be, he's been working on an animated movie called "El Superbeasto". Zombie told Launch that the project has become bigger than he first thought it would be. "'Superbeasto', that has been in the process now for quite a while, and where we're at with the 'Superbeasto' movie is a movie studio has come in to take it over and to release it theatrically," he said. "It was originally done as a straight-to-video movie, that was always the intention, but, you know, I'm not a big fan of that. I always like theatrical, so we're trying to bump it up to that."

"El Superbeasto" is based on a character from Zombie's "Spookshow International" comic book series.

Zombie has set November 22 as the release date for "Hellbilly Super Deluxe", a special edition of his 1998 debut solo effort, "Hellbilly Deluxe". The new package will feature the original CD, plus a DVD that includes videos for every song on the record. In addition to eight never-before-seen video clips, the new "Hellbilly" package features expanded case and booklet artwork. Zombie is also making progress on his third solo album, which he hopes to release in early 2006.
