--What do you most admire in other people? - Mmslgrl December 4 1996
TWIGGY:"Kindness, that's something I have a hard time with. Not that I'm mean
spirited, but you know, going out of your way to be nice to people."
--I guess Marilyn Manson isn't really Politically Correct at all? - Mmslgrl
December 4 1996
TWIGGY:"We aren't any Ism's or Ist's either. We aren't racist. We just are.
We just exist. That's why we did the song Rock and Roll Nigger. That's how we
feel. I Think we're more outcast than any group of people. No one cares about
kids like us. But nigger is my favorite word right now, and it's meant in a
good way. We are outcasts. I identify with artists like Dr. Dre more than I
do with any other bands."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For you advanced thinkers: You may be surprised to know that Marilyn Manson and Quentin Tarantino share the same views and opinions about American Culture, Creating Icons, Serial Killers, and other various subjects. Quentin Tarantino is an Actor/Director and Screenwriter of such films as Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Natural Born Killers, From Dusk Till Dawn, True Romance, and more. Out of All the interviews that I have read, I have seen similarities in the way they express their opinions and want to see change. Marilyn Manson has talked about doing something Movielike in the future.....These two men are the ones to Prepare us for the apocalypse. They are definetly in the position to Influence Many People. Everything Leans toward the fact that: These two Men created the Concept for Marilyn Manson to Shape, Create, and Form their own American Culture...and to see change for the better come out of it. Here are Obvious similarities:
A___Manson's Lunch Box Collection - Blackmoon
--TWIGGY:" Manson has a lunchbox collection, he has just about everything,
being on the road, it's hard to keep up the collection."
--Lunch Box's and Board Games - Vanity Fair Magazine July 1994
--TARANTINO Collects lunch boxes, preferably from Television Shows of the
70's and he has a closet full of board games based on TV and movies.
B___Word Nigger - Mmslgrl December 4 1996
--TWIGGY:"My favorite word right now would be the word nigger. Not that's a
bad thing, but people don't like to get into what that word really means, but
I'd like to demystify it. It's such a powerful word. It shouldn't have that
much power.
--Word Nigger - Movieline Magazine August 1994
--TARANTINO:"I feel that the word nigger is the most volatile word in the
English language and anytime anyone gives a word that much power, I think
everybody should be shouting it from the rooftops to take the power away."
C___Changing Identities - Mmslgrl December 4 1996
---TWIGGY:"A lot of people buy into identities real quick. They go to become
whatever. Or they buy who they are. People that society calls losts, the
schizophrenic's, insane or whatever, are actually more intelligent than most
of the people, or the psychiatrists that diagnose them. They're smart enough
not to buy into one identity. Why become one person when you can become
everyone and believe in evetything, and do so many different things."
--Changing identities
---TARANTINO:"Because one of the problems with directing is it takes so
fucking long. It was great to give my heart and soul to something and then
when shooting was over, it was done. And I like being another person, and
think in another persons thoughts."
--Changing Identities - Axcess Magazine November 1996
---MM:"I think every man and woman is a star. It's just a matter of realizing
and becoming it. It's all a matter of willpower. The world is just how you
see it. If you want to have other people tell you how to see it, then you
can. But if you want to look at it differently, then it's limitless what you
can do. That's why I don't feel the need to be one person. I can be as many
people as I like. (In my mind)"
___D Sports
---MM:"I hate sports, in fact I don't even acknowledge they exist."
-- Sports - Playboy Magazine Interview November 1994
---TARANTINO:"One thing I don't understand is that the average American movie
goers cannot watch a movie for 3 hours, yet they'll watch a stupid, horrific
football game for 4 hours. Now that's boredom at its most collosal. I have a
lot of little theories and one of them is that nobody really likes sports.But
men feel they should like sports. So they act as if they do. I also feel that
way about "The Who" I don't really think anybody really likes the band.
Everyone thinks they're supposed to like "The Who", so they just pretend.
They're afraid to say the emperor has no clothes."
--Sports/Physical Training - Holy Bible 1 Timothy 4 (8)
"For physical training is of some value, but Godliness has value for all
things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come."
___E - A Message in their Work? SUB-TEXT - MTV Europe December 10 1996
MM:"I hope so, I mean I don't expect everyone to get something Deep out of
it. Some people can just listen to the music, or get their aggressions out,
but I think with any great painting or movie, album or whatever it is. It's
better if people can take what they need form it. That they're not forced to
get some particular message."
--A Message in their Work
---TARANTINO - There's SUB-TEXT in all my work and there's definitely big
sub-text underneath the drama scenes in the movie. That's what makes it
special. I'm not going to say what it is, because then it's not about that.
It's there for me, it's there for the actors and it's there for you if you
want it. If you don't want it and you want to see a movie about a couple of
gangsters that take hold of a family and then end up fighting for their lives
to get out of a bar full of vampires, that's there if that's all you need to
get. But if you want to get into discussions about the loss of faith and
everything, that's there too. And it's treated seriously. I'm not making
message movies. Some people make movies where if Nine million people see
their movie, they want Nine million people walking out with the same thought.
I like the idea of Nine million people walking out with the same thought and
different ideas of what that meant and arguing about it and everything. I get
people asking me all the time "What did this mean and what did that mean?"
Well, if I wanted you to know exactly what that meant, I would've shown you.
It would've been easy though. But part of the fun is the fact that everyone
is making their movie, you know, when you don't explain everything and it's
kind of there so it can be looked at as something a little deeper than that
or it can be looked at as a good hoot depending on who you are as a viewer."
___F -Pulp Fiction or Reservoir Dogs - Kerrang Magazine
---MM:"That's tough because I like both of them. It's going to have to be
Pulp Fiction because Christopher Walken was in it and he's one of my favorite
actors. But that would be the only thing to set them apart."
---Christopher Walken's Speech in The Movie True Romance written by Quentin
Tarantino
"I'm the anti-christ. You get me in a vendetta kind of mood, you tell the
angels in heaven that you had never seen pure evil so singularly personified
as you did in the face of the man who killed you"
"I haven't killed anybody since 1974 (original script) Goddamn his soul to
burn for eternity in fucking hell for making me spill blood on my hands."
___G - The BLUE Contact lens: Blindness
-Marilyn Manson wears a Blue Contact
-The Pimp in True Romance Drexl Spivey wears a Blue Contact
-Quentin Tarantino's Character in From Dusk Till Dawn wears Two blue
contacts, for a brief shot when he turns into a vampire.
The contact represents: Blindness
-Quentin Tarantinos character in Reservoir Dogs says He is Blinded by the
Blood in his eyes before he dies.
-Clarence (Christian Slater) loses his sight from one eye in True Romance at
the end.
"Satan the God if this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so they
cannot see the light of the words of the glory of Christ who is the Image of
God." Holy Bible: 2 Corinthians 4 (4)
These two men are on to making People realize How Blind they've become. Dead
to the world.
Characters in Quentin Tarantino films go Past the Breaking point, and other
characters for example: Jules Winfield played by Samuel L. Jackson (at the
end of Pulp Fiction) He Stays Cool and makes the Decision to "Handle the
situation" stay calm, and Put down the gun and let Honey Bunny and Pumpkin
take off with the bag of money. Marcellus Wallace (big black man1)sold his
Life (his soul) in the beginning and Jules (black man 2) Bought a life at the
end of the movie.
___H - Powder the Nose - Album:ACsuperstar :Song: Angel with the scabbed
wings.
MM:"He is the angel with the scabbed wings, hard drug face, want to powder
his nose"
--Powder the nose - Pulp Fiction Written By Quentin Tarantino spoken by Uma
Thurman
"I'll tell you what, I'll go to the bathroom and powder my nose while you sit
here and think of something to say." (Mia powders her nose by doing a line of
Coke off the bathroom sink. Her head jerks up from the rush.)
___I - Selling Souls / Fallen Angel - Kerrang Magazine November 1996
---MM:"What I've decided to do is accept the role of the fallen angel."
-- Selling Souls / Fallen Angel - CFNY May 30 1996
---MM:"Well that's absolutely true, I , of course did sell my soul to get to
this place (If he has a soul, then he can't be his own God) But the thing is,
you have to understand that that's what it's about. If you don't get your
message across to people, then what's the point of having a message."
--Selling Souls / Fallen Angel - Marcellus Wallace's Soul is the light in the
Briefcase. Pulp Fiction
-- The best theory about the light in the briefcase around the web.
Remember the first time you were introduced to Marcellus Wallace. The first
shot of him was of the back of the head. Complete with the band-aid. Then,
remember the combination of the lock on the briefcase was 666. Then remember,
when anyone ever opened the briefcase, it glowed, and they were in amazement
of how beautiful it was. They were speechless. Now bring in some bible
knowledge and the most beautiful thing about a person is their soul.
Marcellus Wallace sold his soul to the Devil and was trying to buy it back.
The three guys at the beginning of the movie were the Devils helpers. And
remember when the guy at the end came out of the bathroom with a hand cannon.
Jules and Vincent were not harmed by the bullets. Because they were saving a
Soul. It was divine intervention.
--Selling Souls / Fallen Angel - Guitar School Magazine Marilyn Manson
--Is the fact that you are a kingpen of rebellion a sign that the world is
ending or what?
---MM:"Absolutely. Things need to go to a point of extremism in order to be
Born-again. Things need to go past that point as far as they can go, and then
we'll become innocent again. It's my job to sort of cleanse the world of all
its sins. I'm offering myself up as a sacrifice to the world to become
innocent again."
--You are calling for Armageddon. Why would you want the world to end? -
Guitar World Mag
---MM:"Because the way it is. It's not a great place anymore and it Can't be.
I'm sure it would have been much more enjoyable to be alive in the fifties,
when there was at least an illusion of purity, and things that were taboo had
such a great power to them. I think it was a time when magic was really
alive. There's no imagination anymore. It was eliminated with video games and
VCR's. I'm only necessary because of the way the world is. Well, maybe if I
manage to make the world a better place then maybe I'd want to have a kid."
___J On Serial Killers - Underscope Magazine
---MM:"It's not out of the question. If I hadn't found a way to express
myself through music. Then I could have ended up that way. They're just
people. There's not much that separates us from them. That's why people are
so fascinated with them.
-- On Serial Killers US Magazine January 1996
TARANTINO:"If I hadn't loved movies so much and wanted to be an actor, I
might have been a criminal."
___K - Roger Avary: Co-Writer of Pulp Fiction
IndieWire has recently learned that Roger Avary, who with Quentin Tarantino
shared the best Original Screenplay Oscar for Pulp Fiction, is writing a
script for a movie which will be the next installment in the "Phantasm"
series. The screenplay, entitiled "PHANTASM 1999: A story of THE APOCALYPSE
and HELL ON EARTH (sound familiar?), is currently being shopped around to
distributers in both the states and abroad. According to director Don
Cascarelli, the film is very violent and will have a budget higher that those
for both Phantasm II and Phantasm III combined.
___L - Lost Highway
David Lynch, Director of such movies as Blue Velvet, Eraserhead, The elephant
man, Dune and Lost Highway. Rent Blue Velvet and see if you recognize any
similarities between Marilyn Manson and the movie. 1. The plastic mouthpiece,
2 the light he holds under his face as he sings etc..
Marilyn Manson was in a Brief scene in David Lynch's "Lost Highway"
--Traps - Sci-Fi Universe Magazine
TARANTINO:"As a student of film and directors careers, I know in theory, how
to keep from falling into the traps that I've seen a lot of other people fall
into."
--On Natural Born Killers - Entertainment Weekly 1994
TARANTINO:"Its one of my least favorite scripts cause it's the one you could
boil down to a sentence that the media is turning killers into celebrities"
Serial Killers? Celebrities? Superstars?
--Films
MM:"Films and things like that are really my first love, so when we get to
make videos, it's just as important as the song. To me it's not a commercial,
for me it's a whole work of art on its own. So we plan on working on a movie
and things like that in the future." <-------
--Satanico Pandemonium - From Dusk Till Dawn written by Quentin Tarantino
"I'm not gonna drain you completely. You're gonna turn for me. You'll be my
slave. You'll live for me. You'll eat bugs because I order it. Because I
don't think you're worthy of human blood, you'll feed on the blood of stray
dogs. You'll be my foot stool. And at my command, you'll lick the dogshit
from my boot heal. Since you'll be my dog, you're new name will be Spot.
Welcome to slavery."
--Movie - Guitar World December 1996
MM:"I saw a movie yesterday that made me feel like I wasn't out of my mind. I
believe that when you give your imagination enough room to run wild, the
border between what's real and what's not can be crossed and interchanged and
swapped. Even something as stupid as that Walt Disney movie, The Santa Clause
has a theme that belief is really what makes things real. That's a key to
everything we do."
--Big Decision - Premiere Magazine November 1994
TARANTINO:"So after making this big decision about my life that I was gonna
do all this, I got home at one in the afternoon and there was, like, a letter
waiting for me. It was a check for $1,300, two years worth of tax refunds
that I have never taken advantage of, It showed up on the day that I decided
to change my life. If I would have gotten it two years earlier, I would have
pissed it away. Things like that, when they happen, it just makes you think.
It was almost as if God was waiting for me to, like, get my shit together."
--Creativity - Kerrang Magazine December 14 1996
MM:"We actually didn't spend as much money as you might imagine on videos.
The thing we've always done is if you're given less money and less time to
work, you're always more creative. And I've always liked to be a big part of
the visual element of the videos. Because it's us we're presenting, not just
some directors idea of what the song is."
--Natural Born Killers - Blackmoon
Twiggy:"Rock and roll nigger, we liked what the song stood for. It's not a
racist song. We were originally gonna do it for the Natural Born Killers
soundtrack which Trent Reznor put together, but they went for the original
version."
--Superstars - Details Magazine February 1996
TARANTINO:"Because you're taking all the celebrities on the planet and trying
to make them like they're your neighbors. Where in the old days they wanted
the stars to be Gods. They didn't identify with Joan Crawford or Clark Gable,
they worshiped them."
--Creating a Character
MM:"Right as a writer, Antichrist Superstar was something that was created
and then it's something that then created where it came from. If you create a
personality that's all powerful and all knowing then it has the power to
control and create the person who made it at the same time."
--Madonna - RIP Magazine November 1996
MM"At first she wasn't accepted and neither was I but any pioneer has to take
a few arrows in his back in order for others to follow. And in history, any
form of art, ideology, or religion that have been against the status quo,
people have always tried to keep it down. But Time changes that."
--Listen to Quentin Tarantino's opening Speech on the movie RESERVOIR DOGS.
--Delusional Self
MM:"Things like seeing that movie "Over the edge", then seeing Mr. Dillon...
Coincidence happens a lot, as does deja vu. I suffer from the psychological
problem known as "Delusional Self" when you believe that every coincidence in
your life is related. I don't consider it to be a disorder. I consider it a
higher form of awareness."
--Shock - Guitar World Magazine December 1996
MM:"If I wanted to be purely shocking I could do much more that would be
offensive. I just try to express myself in a particular way that grabs
peoples attention. But it's never about shock value. It's a vehicle to
express myself and get people to listen. There's so much out there to see,
you really have to make things powerful in order for them to leave a mark.
Everybody has an image. Ours is just more flamboyant. There are much more
bands out there that have much more stronger and offensive images than we do.
But the thing is. Nobody cares because they don't have the same songs to
support it."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NUMBER 3
--Number 3 - Kerrang Magazine December 14 1996
MM:"Things like, people saying the new album would debut at number one on the
Billboard Charts in the U.S. and I said, "No it's gonna be number Three."
Because Number 3 is a very powerful number on the album. It's repeated quite
often. Then it did chart an Number 3. Was it a coincidence .....you decide.
If your in touch with your sub-conscience, you can really use it to your
advantage."
--3 Holes - Album: Acsuperstar: Song: Kinderfeld MM"Three holes upon the leather belt."
--3 Dots
3 Black Dots on Zim Zum's forehead.
--3'rd Day - Holy Bible: Mark 10 (34)
"They shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and
shall kill him and on the 3'rd day Jesus shall rise again." Jesus was 33 when
he was crucified on the cross. There were 3 crosses in all. Jesus and the 2
thieves. All the world's sin was Poured onto Jesus at that moment.
--Number 3 - Guitar School Magazine
MM:"The way we wrote Acsuperstar....but this was very focused and it came
from a very specific place in our minds. Twiggy and I were in tune with one
another. Pogo too for that matter. The core writing was us 3, and the number
3 occurs a lot on the record. In numerology there's a lot of significance to
the number 3. It's traditionally a very powerful number. It's the Holy
Trinity of the Holy Bible. 1 God(The Father) 2 Jesus(The son) 3 Holy
Spirit(The comforter)and these 3 are one. 1 John 5 (7) and in magic it's a
very powerful number."
--3 Monkeys - Zine September 24 1994 - 1994
MM:"On portrait of an American family, I don't know, it's some weird kind of
Trinity of the Monkey on the album that I haven't even figured out yet. I
realized after the album was already out that the monkey occurs 3 times - in
3 different songs. And just by coincidence, that picture under the CD (inside
the case) has three monkeys on it. There's something there to be
discovered...I just can't say what.
--Deny me 3 times - Holy Bible: Matthew 26 (34) Jesus to Peter the Apostle
"You will deny me 3 times"
--3 Black pens 3 Red felt pens - Vanity Fair Magazine July 1994
TARANTINO:"You can't write poetry on a computer. So I go buy a 250 Page
notebook and 3 Black felt pens and 3 Red felt pens and I say, "These are the
pens I'm going to write Pulp Fiction with. It's very romantic."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I went to the Santa Monica Show in Southern California on Saturday January 25 1997 and my friend Michael got us backstage passes. I got to talk with Marilyn Manson and one question I asked was: "In Track 99 you say the words: I have tried to save you, but I cannot come to save you." Why? "If you can't save me then who will?" Then Mr. Manson said,"Jesus will save you, he is the way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to God but through Jesus. He is my exit. Listen to the song Reflecting God and you will understand." So I asked, "But you said the truth is, there is no truth." Then Mr. Manson leaned over ans whispered, "Repent, that's what I'm talking about." Then he walked away. Later on, after the show was done, I was in the hallway and Twiggy pulled out his penis in front of me and Trent Reznor. Now that was entertaining. We just laughed.
--EXIT - Album: Acsuperstar: Song: Reflecting God
MM:"My world is unaffected, there is an exit here.
--EXIT - Holy Bible Spoken by Jesus - John 10 (9)
JESUS:"I am the Door, by me if any man enters, he shall be saved."
--REPENT - Album: Acsuperstar: Song: Antichrist Superstar
MM:"Repent!!!, that's what I'm talking about."
--REPENT - Luke 15(7)
JESUS:"I tell you that in the same way, there will be more rejoicing in
heaven over one sinner who repents, than over 99 righteous persons who do not
need to repent."
--SATAN and GOD - Access Magazine November 1996 Issue 20
MM:"I think that "God" and "Satan" are just two words like "Marilyn" and
"Manson"
--Satanic Bible by Anton Szandor Lavey
"But if God is in complete control and as benign as he is suppose to be, why
does he allow all these things to happen?"
--Holy Bible - Isaiah 55(8-9) / Proverbs 24(12) / Psalm 94(7-11)
GOD:"For my thoughts, are not your thoughts, neither are my ways your ways.
As the Heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your
ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
/ "If you say, but we knew nothing about this. Does not he who weighs the
heart, perceive it? Does he who guards your life, know it? Will he not repay
each person according to what he has done?"
/"Does he who implanted the ear, not hear? Does he who formed the eye, not
see? Does he who disciplines nations, not punish. Does he who teaches man,
lack knowledge? The Lord knows the thoughts of man, he knows that they are
futile."
--Dying Years - Album: ACsuperstar: Song: Track 99
MM:"These are the dying years."
--Dying Years - Holy Bible Matthew 24(4-8)
JESUS:"Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name
claiming, I am the Christ, and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and
rumers of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must
happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and
kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various
places. All theses are the beginnings of birth pains."
--Dying Years - Holy Bible 2 Timothy 3(1-5) etc..
"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be
lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient
to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous,
without self control, brutal, not lovers of good, treacherous, rash,
conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of
Godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them"
--Marilyn Manson - Mmslgrl
TWIGGY:"They saw us as something powerful. They found a bad guy, so they
latched on. Our band riles people up, gets their people back into religion."
--Christian Rock Album - Circus Magazine February 18 1997
MM:"We need to push things to the farthest limit, and that's what I feel like
I'm doing. For things to be destroyed, and to be Born Again: in an almost
conservative way. So people shouldn't be surprised if our next record is a
Christian Rock Album. That's really the only thing you could expect from us. I
think we've touched on a lot of good things. Enjoy the show."
It wouldnt be a FULL ON Christian rock album, cause there would be NO
FANS...so it will exist as an underlying...born again ..theme. Look up the
word: SUB-TEXT
--Personal Morality - MTV Europe December 10 1996
MM:"Well strangely enough, a lot of my ideals are Christian in a sense but
it's just I don't like the way that religion is Portrayed in America. I think
the album really expresses, you know, how I feel. I mean it's based on
individuality."

--TATOO on Manson's right arm...
--Manson has a tatoo of the Locust that the book of revelations 9(3-11) talks
about the locusts with a scorpion sting. That will torment all the people
without the seal of GOD on their forheads.
--TATOO of the Locust - Holy Bible Revelation 9(3-11)
LOCUST:"And out of the smoke locusts came down upon the earth and were given
power like that of scorpions of th earth.They were told to harm only thos
people without the seal of God on their forheads. During those days men wil
seek death, but will not find it. The sound of their wings was like the
thundering of many horses and chariots rushing into battle. They had as king
over them the angel of the abyss whose name is Abaddon."
--Rock and Roll Sores

--Revelations (The Last Chapter in the Bible) - Guitar World Magazine
December 1996
MM:"Revelations also speaks a lot about the Worm."
--Lucifer - Kerrang Magazine December 14 1996
MM:"There's a lot of great stories and a lot of great values in the Holy
Bible, and I actually relate to a lot of them. The character, the idea, or
the PART of my personality that I describe as Antichrist Superstar, is a lot
like Lucifer in the Bible. Someone who was kicked out of heaven because he
wanted to be God. I try to say in my own story. Well if it was told from his
point of view, then would he still be the bad guy?"
Lucifer was God's Right Hand Man before Creation, then God saw Impurity in
Lucifer so he cast him down to Earth, and changed his name to Satan. Satan is
the Prince of this Earth. 1/3 of the Angels in heaven were cast down to Earth
with Lucifer. There are God's angels and Satan's angels.
--Winner is God - Details Magazine December 1996

people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them.
