Danzig premiered his horror anthology film Verotika at Chicago's Cinepocalypse Film Festival back in June, and it wasn't super well-received. A/V Club called it "one of the most batshit ridiculous horror anthology films ever put on screen. Within the first 60 seconds, a narrator pokes out a woman’s eyes with her fingers, and it works all too well as a metaphor for what this movie puts the audience through," while Rotten Tomatoes currently has the film set at 20% over the course of five reviews.
In fact, Danzig commented after one screening during a Q & A “You guys laughed in some of the places I wouldn’t have, but that’s cool.” But it seems like it's one of those movies that's so bad, it's good.
Now for the first time, Verotika will be available to the public via a premiere on September 10 at the Castro Theater in San Francisco.
