Whose idea was it to put in the footage of Danielle as a child after her death scene in H2? That whole scene was brilliant! The acting, the score... just a perfect scene. Only horror movie that ever made me tear up.

Well, obviously it was my idea. Since it is my movie. Funny you mention it, that is one of the things the studio fucking hated.

Your most watched or favourite zombie movie of all time? Mine personally is George A.Romero's Night of The Living Dead :)

That is a great film, but I think my fav is DAWN OF THE DEAD. I've seen that film at least a couple hundred times.

Hi, Rob. Any chance we will ever hear the song "Little Piggy" off the HOTC soundtrack live? We finnaly got you to play Pussy Liquor, which I was lucky enought to see in Tucson, AZ when you played for 2 hours!

Not anytime soon. Ginger has enough songs to learn I don't want to kill the guy on his first tour.

I read somewhere once that you moved to New York when you were 18, but you dropped out of school (or got kicked out)... how did you support yourself ? where exactly in NYC did you leave ? Not sure how much of that is true...but it would be interesting to see an answer.

All true. I got kicked out of college and lived on the Lower East side. This was in 1983 so it wasn't the swell place it is today. I worked as a bike messenger mostly, then as a PA on Pee Wee's Playhouse and then finally as a graphic artist for a bunch of porn mags. Then White Zombie signed to Geffen and the band was my job.

Hi Rob. I was wondering, what was your inspiration for the white horse in H2? Thanks.

The inspiration hit one morning while driving to set. I saw a team of white horses running through the mist in a field. It was amazing. By the time I got to set I was looking for a giant white horse to use. Deborah and the white horse in the hallway is one of my favorites images.

How did you enjoy your experience working with Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights? Which of your other movies do you think would make excellent mazes?

The gang at Universal are great. Really true horror fans. Last year's 1000 Corpses maze was a huge, huge it so I am hoping that maybe one day we can do a LORDS OF SALEM maze.

In the van crash scene in H2 when the coroner repeats "fuck" over and over, was that a middle finger to your critics that say you are too vulgar? I think H2 (directors cut) will become a cult classic one day. Some of the best acting I've seen in a horror movie.

No, I don't was film responding to critics. That was just a choice between me and the actor made at that time. I love it because it is awkward, which is exactly how people act when they are hurt. And to anyone that thinks I am vulgar well, go FUCK YOURSELF YOU COCK SUCKING FUCKING CUNT! Ha.

Mr. Zombie, how much of your films are totally your works? As in are they your finished thoughts and you have other writers edit and fine tune them, or do you sit down with a group of folks with just an idea that you all collaborate on?

I am the only writer involved on any of my films except EL SUPERBEASTO which Tom Papa and I wrote together. Although the comic it was based on was written solely by me.

  2. Cool stuff! I hope you might get a moment to answer my questions:

    -When you first announced The Lords of Salem, I was thrilled to hear you make reference to the extended nature of The Shining and discuss your desire to make a "patient" film. Was your process in writing the script or approaching production different for this film, with these intentions in mind?

    -You have very open to casting actors with physical disabilities in your films (Michael Berryman and the late, great Matthew McGrory) and exploring mental disabilities and emotional disturbance and the family system through Michael Myers' backstory in H1, and his development in H2. In your opinion, has the role of actors and characters with physical and mental disabilities in the horror genre evolved in recent times?

    Thank you,
    John

  3. Being a huge fan of your music and being a guitar player, it's hard to find accurate tabs for your songs on the internet. I have tab books for Hellbilly Deluxe and Educated Horses which I love and wonder if you'll ever put out tab books for Sinister Urge and especially Hellbilly Deluxe II? I'd love to learn Werewolf Baby, Michael, Sick Bubblegum and Jesus Frankenstein. Ask John 5 if he'd write this stuff down and publish it please.
    Thanks Rob.

    Are you making another Howard appearance soon?

    Do you ride motorcycles at all? If so there are sick places right here in CT you have to see.

  5. I really liked the white horse too.

    And I have debated with certain fucking cunts who think you are too vulgar..I asked those dumb dicks if they read Stephen King..I read a lot of Stephen King, and anyone else who does, would probably notice there are a lot of naughty words in his books. I told them, if they don't think that is vulgar too, then there is a fucking double standard and double standards are fucking bullshit.
