Rob Zombie Directs…A Woolite Commercial?

Rob Zombie is not only a rocking frontman and the next Howard Schultz, but he’s also become one of the most sought-after horror directors out there. So it makes perfect sense the dude would direct a Woolite commercial.

Yes, a Woolite commercial. Strange, but true. Rob took to his blog and said the shoot went down in Vancouver — which, like Seattle, is also an amazing town, if you’ve never been.

“I just wrapped a very…scary TV commercial for Woolite, called ‘The Torturer.’ Yes, I said Woolite. This ain’t yo Mamma’s Woolite. Can’t show you much but, below are a few shots from this crazy week of filming.”

Go to his blog if you want to see the fucking pictures. Me? I say more power to you, Rob. Make a buck however you can. Never mind the fact that there are tons of struggling directors out there who’d love — and quite possibly need — to get a residuals-paying gig like this. You go, dude. Rack up that coin. By the way, I know that Woolite likely approached him for the job. Shame on them for not helping out a director who isn’t also a fucking rock star.
