After movie roles in ‘Party Monster’ and ‘Wrong Cops’, shock rocker Marylin Manson has taken on his biggest movie role to date in ‘Let Me Make You A Martyr’. Watch the trailer below where you will see his bespectacled hit man character by the name of Pope torching a cabin & sporting a few daubs of blood across his face.
‘Let Me Make You A Martyr’ explores the perversion of the American dream in a forgotten culture of middle America. This story documents the lives of two characters who have fallen victim to tragic circumstances, June and Drew Glass – two adopted siblings (from different parents) who have fallen in love. We experience their struggle to preserve that love from the evil that encompasses the world around them. Drew had gotten himself into a great deal of trouble with their adoptive father Larry, who is a murderous criminal with a short fuse. As a result, Drew had to skip town and his whereabouts have been unknown for 4 years. The story picks up when Drew returns to try to make sense of his tumultuous past and rekindle the love he once had – this is the premise of our story. The first scene begins in an interrogation room with a detective (Michael Potts). The events that lead Drew to the interrogation are recounted in a series of flash backs.
The project is already over halfway to reaching their Kickstarter goal to help fund post production. You can be part of the film by grabbing a reward. Take a look at more behind the scenes photos over on the Facebook page for the movie
