Metalocalypse director Mark Brooks has created a 20-minute DVD titled Playing with Dolls, a 12-episode video-graphic novel that will be included in Slayer's World Painted Blood Deluxe Edition due out November 3, 2009.
The film blends elements of animation and still-photography into a visual style similar to that of a graphic novel.
The producers explained:
[The film is a] 12-part nightmare that breathes corrupt life into Slayer's latest syllabus of stalkers, psychopaths and serial killers, merging their aberrant psyches into the supremely focused desire of a single, merciless malcontent. A methodical distillation of one man's lethal frenzy, the film follows the gruesome outbursts of a nameless protagonist. He is not an indiscriminate murder junkie, but rather a highly creative snuff-artist with a deeply personal sense of purpose - a man for whom murder is the only conceivable way forward. With a black heart hardened by tragedy, he chooses his victims carefully. His methods are as grisly and varied as they are poetic.
