5.0 out of 5 stars
A must-have for the hardcore "DANZIG" fan!, September 10, 1999
This review is from: Danzig [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Possibly the most often-watched video in my entire collection,"DANZIG" contains several videos for tracks from the first album and arguably some of the best "early" Danzig video out there that's been professionally shot. Highlights include: Glenn talking briefly about his religous views, drummer Chuck Biscuits grunting through a few words with the narrator, guitarist John Christ showing off his favorite axe, all while the band's bassist, Eerie Von, simply wants to be left alone. At a meager 40 minutes running time, I was left wanting more, but hey.. 40 minutes are better than none! My suggestion? Get this piece before it's gone - God only knows I've had a HELL of a time trying to get a new copy.

Hell Yeah, September 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Danzig [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This has the first cuts of music videos from the first album, none of which I'm sure ever got played by crappy MTV. The videos are for Am I Demon, Twist of Cain, Mother, She Rides, and a tiny bit of live footage of When Death Had No Name. There are also interviews with the original lineup of Glenn, John, Eerie, and Chuck. If there is something wrong it's the length, but they would've had to do a video for every song, which they wouldn't do, and there's a little bit of that late eigthies/early ninties cheesiness in the videos. Definately get this if you're a Danzig fan

Danzig: The Inside Story, November 23, 2004
This review is from: Danzig [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a fun little video I've watched a time or two over the years, and it still entertains. The three stars are for the music/videos mostly. The videos are pretty cool. Corny as hell, but cool. The thing that bugs me about this are the scenes with Glenn. If you ever needed proof as to the authenticity of his arrogance, look no further. It's obvious that he scripted his own interviews. He's a jerk to the interviewer, just check out the scene where he's reading a Wolverine comic. It just comes across as though he's going out of his way to push his tough guy image coz he knows he's being filmed. One backstage scene has him ranting about how he's gonna get some guy to make him a "steel fist"-a nifty metal doodad that you can wear as a kind of metal glove-so he can dislocate a jaw if he punches someone. Too bad he didn't have this handy toy in Tuba City. The other band members are allowed about a minute or less of screen time for themselves just to remind the viewer that there are three other members of the band Danzig. Chuck will startle and amaze as he proves that a fantastic drummer can be 100% brain dead. Eerie lives up to his name, yet he's actually funny(unintentionally) and would probably be fun to hang around with. John is the coolest of the bunch. He isn't arrogant, angry or an idiot. He seems like a really cool guy, I wish Glenn allowed him to speak more. But even with all my Glenn slamming, I highly recommend this tape(I'll buy it if it comes out on dvd). It's extremely entertaining, even if it's not always for the right reasons.
