Corey Taylor already has his work cut out for him this year with Slipknot tours and his own solo album, but why stop there? According to Daily Dead, Taylor has teamed up with horror makeup and special effects Tom Savini for his debut horror movie. Savini's work includes Dawn Of The Dead, Day Of The Dead, Friday The 13th, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, as well as working on Taylor's newest mask for Slipknot.
Daily Dead spoke to Savini's "right hand man" Jason Baker, who said the film is currently in pre-production.
"I am thrilled that we are able to finally start slowly talking about the fact that Tom and I are going to be involved with Corey Taylor's new horror movie, and that we will be handling the special makeup effects for it. We're not allowed to talk about plot details or titles or anything like that right now, but I will say that the script is totally f–ked up, Corey's got some really sick things planned for this, and I'm super excited to be a part of it."
"We have always had such a great time collaborating with Corey, doing his masks and everything, but the best thing about working with him is that I made a friend. Corey's such a wonderful, fun person to be around. The guy has been through hell, and to come out of everything that he has laughing about it, those kinds of people are such unicorns. So, when they come into your life, you just want to hold on to them with everything, and of course you want to work with them and do whatever you can to support their creativity. We’re extremely excited."
Considering this is still in pre-production, don't expect anything for a while.
