Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll Teaser Trailer


Teaser trailer for the Marilyn Manson-intended, written and directed, feature-length film titled 'Phantasmagoria: The Visions of Lewis Carroll'. Originally conceived in 2004 with pre-production through-out 2005 via The Wild Bunch (UK) and with an initial budget of $5-7 Million, 'Phantasmagoria' was due to begin filming in 2006 and is now on indefinite production hold.
Lily Cole, inspiration of Tim Burton's recent 'Alice in Wonderland', was originally cast as Manson's Alice for 'Phantasmagoria'.
This teaser also features real-life twin sisters engaging in questionable acts and burlesque superstar Dita Von Teese in artistic, full-nude. The figure in the medical mask is artist Gottfried Helnwein and the bird-face masked character and white gloved Lewis Carroll impresario, is Marilyn Manson.
Voiceover and audio, copyright Marilyn Manson. We contributed; script-writing, post-production, visual fx, camera work, graphic design, set design, etc.
Produced in 2005, re-worked in 2006.

And my opinion:

I've been waiting for this for so long! And the trailer in any case perfectly justified my hopes.
What wouldn't say I still love Manson. Just as a person. His worldview is similar to mine. Yes, before he was candy, and Antichrist number one, but people tend constantly changing and improving. in any case it is growth. And this, a new level of MM I like most. His personality creates necessary harmony in art (in fact as in the world, too) which consists of creation and destruction. Isn't wonderful? It inspires me.
Completely different view of phantasmagoria. Why not? in my video (yes, in that what is still not completed yet), I also tried to show my Phantasmagoria) After all, nobody, except author, doesn't really know how everything was looked in wonderland. But somehow everybody sure, that it was full of colours, beauty and positive. why you think so? And what means to you word "beauty"? For some it's butterflies and puppies, but for some it's a white wall, and for some it is a pool of blood. All this is an absolute subjectivity.
And from my side too. main thing - to choose. whatever your choice - it will be right. cause it is yours)
