Gibson's YouTube Channel's METAL AND MONSTERS show has a Halloween special! METAL AND MONSTERS host Count D (Rob Zombie band), sits down for an in depth interview with Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett to discuss monsters, metal, and horror memorabilia. The interview features photos from the films that helped shape Kirk’s love of horror. Kirk, and Count D talk about their love of films, including The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Exorcist, and Nosferatu. Kirk also discusses making music in Metallica, his new solo album Portals, and his top 10 horror bands of all time.
Additionally, this episode of METAL AND MONSTERS provides the ultimate behind-the-scenes field trip to Halloween Horror Nights (HHN) at Universal Studios in Hollywood. Count D visits Creative Director and Executive Producer of HHN, John Murdy and learns the process of how the Halloween Horror Nights mazes are designed and constructed. John talks collaborations with Slash, Alice Cooper, and Ozzy Osbourne, and takes the METAL AND MONSTERS crew through the Universal Monsters and Killer Klowns from Outer Space mazes.
METALS AND MONSTERS is primarily filmed on location in downtown Los Angeles within the historic 2,000 seat Los Angeles Theatre. Constructed in 1930, Charlie Chaplin helped fund the completion of the building so it would be ready to premiere his film City Lights in January of 1931. After closing its doors in 1994, the Los Angeles Theatre sat vacant for many years until serving as a film and television location for productions including “Man on The Moon,” Charlie’s Angels,” “Mad Men,” and “The Lords of Salem.” The theatre received a major renovation in 2006 and has since reopened for stage shows and concerts.
