Glenn Danzig’s “VEROTIKA” gets a new trailer and a release date

The hard rocker’s notorious feature directorial debut will be unleashed next month, and you can get a taste of it after the jump.

Cleopatra Entertainment has announced their February 25 release of VEROTIKA on VOD, followed by a Blu-ray on March 3. Based on Danzig’s popular VEROTIK comics, the movie stars Rachel Alig, Alice Haig, Natlia Borowsky, Sean Kanan, Scotch Hopkins, Ashley Wisdom, Kayden Kross—and has been compared to Tommy Wiseau’s THE ROOM since its premiere at last summer’s Cinepocalypse festival. According to the official synopsis, the movie “is a horror anthology that compiles stories from Danzig’s line of comic books of the same name. Stories which focus on horror content that’s often sexual and violent in nature, usually featuring scantily clad female protagonists.” You can read our review of VEROTIKA here.
