Update On Dee Snider's STRANGELAND Sequel?

Share on Facebook
It's been over 10 years since a sequel to Dee Snider's STRANGELAND was green-lit. The singer/talk show host for FANGO RADIO recently explained some of the legalities in an interview with Bullz-Eye.com. "Well, right after the first one came out, anyway. But we started working on the script, we started looking for directors, and then the company that did it – The Shooting Gallery – they were indicted by the federal government for an Enron-like situation. Their CFO was arrested. All properties were seized, and I spent seven years in the courts, just getting my creative properties, because the government just takes everything, and they dissolve everything."

He continues, "After that, I had a deal for an extended DVD release of the first "Strangeland" with Lionsgate, and then the frigging director who fucked it up the first time (John Pieplow) wielded his Director's Guild right to first re-edit. We wanted to do an extended DVD and call it the Dee-rector's cut, but I won't let the guy near it, and it scared off Lionsgate, because they don't wanna get fucking involved with the Director's Guild. So I'm right at this point right now where I'm, like, y'know what? (Sighs) Maybe I should just let it go. I'll put a sign on my website that says, "Y'got $10 million? Give me a call. I've got the script ready to go, Robert Englund's attached, I'm attached. If somebody's serious and wants to make it, call me. But don't call me 'til you're ready to hand the check over."

Despite these comments though, NME just posted a new article saying that the sequel STRANGELAND: DISCIPLE will shoot this year. The website reports, "‘Strangeland: Disciple’ comes 11 years after the original, and continues the story of a schizophrenic sexual sadist who lures victims via the Internet. ‘Strangeland: Disciple’ will come complete with an NC-17 rating right off the bat, and Snider promises it will be “ultra-intense”. The movie will be set in the "underworld of body modification fetishists, amid the secret sado-masochistic freak societies of perverted pleasures that lurk just underneath the veneer of respectable society.""
