Rob Zombie Talks Halloween, Hockey and…. Puppies
Recently, I posted about Rob Zombie’s Great American Nightmare, which is an event in Pomona, CA with three haunted houses, live bands and more all thought up by the fucked up mind of Mr. Zombie himself. Now, in an exclusive interview with Radio.com, the musician turned horror movie monger talks about Halloween, metal and….. puppies. Check it out.
“I’ve wanted to do this for a long time,” Zombie tells Radio.com. “It’s really a two-week-long Halloween extravaganza. There’s haunted mazes, but every night there’s bands playing metal, punk, alternative, dance–every night’s different. Then, there’s car shows and wrestling. You can go to everything or to one thing, but I wanted to do one sort of all-encompassing Halloween carnival craziness.”
When the singer isn’t doing music or horror related films, he’s actually working on a film called Broad Street Bullies, which is about the Stanley Cup winning Philadelphia Flyers in the mid 70’s. Hmm.. interesting. He said:
“I was always a huge hockey fan,” he said, acknowledging that a sports movie isn’t necessarily what one would expect from him. “I wanted to be a pro hockey player before I even knew there was music. I was a diehard Bruins fan.”
He has other films in the works as well, and as the Great American Nightmare wraps up in November, he preps for a co-headlining tour called Night of the Living Dreads. I see what they did there.
