A ghoulish good evening to my fiendish Fangoria fans, the inimitable, the untouchable, the unclassifiable Captain Clegg here with an update on the horrifying, terrifying, and ultimately electrifying events that transpired during the music video shoot for my upcoming single "Zombie A Go Go". What could have been an otherwise innocent rock and roll killing spree of monstrous proportions was by some decadent improvidence foiled by, what else, a bevy of the undead, hell-bent on malevolent mayhem.
However, with the sacrifice of a few expendable set-PAs, a little cattle-prod cajoling, and some quick rewrites from Director Don Swaynos, the shoot was back underway and we wooed the wailing zombie crowd with the sweet sounds of the Night Creatures thunderous psychobilly riffs. Like long-dead sailors dragging their peg-legs towards a hellish siren, the power of our devil-infused rock soothed their savage urges - that and the allure of Clegg's infamous scantily-clad dancers, the Go Go Gogoroths. Altogether a devilishly good time was had by all and despite the camera being splattered with enough blood and guts to give even our pal Rob Zombie nightmares, we managed to get enough footage for a truly killer music video. Carnage and calamity, it's what Captain Clegg is all about!
Captain Clegg and the Night Creatures can be seen in Rob Zombie's upcoming HALLOWEEN II, where they'll be the featured entertainment as Uncle Seymour Coffins' presents Haddonfield's 4th Phantom Jam! Make sure to see 'em on the big screen when the film hits theaters on August 28th, 2009.
On the very same day, the Capt.'s full-length LP, ROB ZOMBIE presents CAPTAIN CLEGG & THE NIGHT CREATURES (music from HALLOWEEN II) will be released, giving the music world a much-need dose of macabre and decidedly evil psychobilly.
The 'Cap. looks an awful lot like Jesse Dayton, who has recently been seen playing shows featuring the music of the Night Creatures. For info on where you can catch the man behind the 'Cap, visit Jesse on MySpace or his Official Site.

Rob Zombie's only vision is that of dollar signs.And his movies are equally as terrible as his music.Absolute excrement.

Does this film feature trolls? Because its comments section certainly does! *wah waaaah!* But seriously, those zombies look ultra-cool, I think it's fun how Zombie expands his vision to outside just the film :)

"When your name is credited with half of what either of these men has, then I might start listening to any of your opinions." -- A completely empty defence, unless you're of the opinion that everyday folk shouldn't be given the vote in order to pass their critical judgement on anyone who has achieved the lofty goal of becoming a politician.

|2009-06-25 03:42:50 You'reNoBogeyman"It's a rare breed who can write a comic book and make movies successfully" -- Nah, comic books are "baby ass", man. And I'll take 'competently' over 'successfully' every time. " I'm just an open-minded fan and a playah." -- Open-minded enough to dismiss something as "baby ass"? Pat yourself on the back. "You're bored and a you're a hater." -- Nope, but *you* look anything but "open-minded" when you use pejorative terms toward people you don't agree with. "Putting a evil psychobilly band in a horror movie is sooooo way overdue..." -- Yes, that whole 5 or 10 seconds that they're onscreen will certainly make the entire thing an instant classic. "the thought of you...is makin....me....very...zzzzz" -- Oh look, it turns out that *you're* the close-minded, bored hater of things you want to dismiss out of hand! Well done. I... guess this means you're probably not a 'playah', either? Don't fret - one day you'll lose it...

Will Rob Zombie's H2 revolutionize the world of horror films? Probably not, but nothing today ever does. But that's not the point. Regardless of how successful it is or isn't, it's his vision, not yours. So you can put his work down and trash his name all over some obscure forum, but no matter how much you bitch and whine about it, it won't change one thing. His work and vision are up there on that screen, that comic book and that CD. Where's yours? Still under your ass, while you sit there typing all your little rants about how this and that sucks.
I've personally watched both Rob Zombie and Jesse (Capt. Clegg) Dayton work and either of them will accomplish a 100 times what any of you whining little shits will ever do in your lives. So quit all of you’re pissing and moaning about what you hate, and get out there and try doing any better you complacent momma's boys. When your name is credited with half of what either of these men has, then I might start listening to any of your opi...

Personally, I'm really curious to see how all of these characters are going to work in Halloween 2. The "prequel" portion of Zombie's Halloween were the most interesting to me because he was free to play in his own universe and it seems like he's going to be doing that here (x1000) so I think it should be a lot fun.

It's a rare breed who can write a comic book and make movies successfully- whether its Zombie or Frank Miller... I'm just an open-minded fan and a playah. You're bored and a you're a hater. I'm hungry for something unique and different in my world, which is ALL about film and music. Putting a evil psychobilly band in a horror movie is sooooo way overdue....I can't finish this, the thought of you...is makin....me....very...zzzzz

|2009-06-24 14:46:38 You'reNoBogeyman"Baby ass comic books"? Oh, you must be talking about those things the ever-so "cool" Rob Zombie writes? 'El Superbumsomething'? 'Skunkshow International'? Ohhh, I get it now - you must be one of those pissy horror fans who can't wrap their brain around the idea that some people don't find Rob Zombie cool or talented. Don't cry.

|2009-06-24 14:34:29 ElvirakillerPissy horror fans who can't wrap their minute brains around Rob Zombie creating an entire world around the movie, should just go read a baby ass comic book and shut their faces... Zombie and Capt. Clegg are about as cool as it gets right now...
