Welcome to Gibson TV's “Metal and Monsters,” a show celebrating the worlds of heavy metal and monster culture!
In this Halloween Special, Count D chats with Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett to discuss monsters, metal, and horror memorabilia. Featuring photos from the films that helped shape his love of horror, Kirk and Count D share talk about their love of films, including “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” “The Exorcist,” and “Nosferatu.” Kirk also talks about that Stranger Things & Metallica collaboration!
In “Tunes From the Crypt,” Count D revisits Type O Negative’s landmark album “October Rust”.*
In a new episode of “Terror Trek,” Count D takes the monster squad on a field trip to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios in Hollywood, CA, to visit creative director John Murdy and learn the process of how the Halloween Horror Nights mazes are designed and constructed with original music written by Slash.
In a historical piece titled “Exhumed From the Tomb,” Count D sits down with Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante and blast beats, thrash metal pioneer to explore the Anthrax’s 40-year history.
Filmed on location in downtown Los Angeles, the backdrop for “Metal and Monsters” is 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.”
