DEE SNIDER Says His New Horror Flick 'My Enemy's Enemy' Is 'Gonna Change The Game Again': It's 'Very Disturbing'

We may never get to see a reunited Twisted Sister but that doesn’t mean that lead singer, Dee Snider is taking it easy on shocking audiences once more with a new horror flick, ‘MY ENEMY’S ENEMY’ and we have word from the rocker himself on what fans can expect.

The TWISTED SISTER frontman spoke about his film during a new appearance on The SDR Show with Ralph Sutton. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "It's a very disturbing movie. It's gonna change the game again. And I'm gonna get to direct it. But right now we're in the midst of a lot of union stuff, which is really stopping the whole process. So, hopefully, once this all settles down, 'cause the actors are next in line… So we'll see what happens."

Asked if the plan is to shoot the movie this year, Dee said: "I was actually set up to film it last year. God, I don't get the industry. We were location scouting, we cast the whole movie in [Las] Vegas, everything was all set to go, and then it was delayed. And everybody in Hollywood goes, 'This is just the way it goes.' It takes years… Somebody — I think maybe [Steven] Spielberg — said, 'It's amazing any movies ever get made.' It's just such a process. So it was postponed to this summer, and now the strikes are happening. So... I'm on hold."

Three years ago, the TWISTED SISTER frontman, who previously wrote and starred in the cult 1998 horror movie "Strangeland", revealed that "My Enemy's Enemy" is based on a real-life crime spree that took place in his native Long Island, New York in 1982.

"I had my movie that was supposed to go into production and there are certain business aspects of that that even now are still slowly moving forward because there are certain things that you can still put in place," he told PopMatters at the time. "You can still slowly work through production elements and everything. I've also been asked to write a reimagining of another classic '80s horror film that I can't mention by name. I was working on the treatment for that. That's been greenlit, so they're putting together deals with that and I'll start writing the screenplay."

Snider went on to say that there are some powerful people in the film industry who think he is "the next Rob Zombie, the rock star-turned-horror writer/director/creator. That's why they're funding me for these two movies and their plan is to turn me into that," he said. "I am ready to be turned into that. This is a place that I've been dabbling in and writing in for many, many years. With my screenplay writing, I'm now firing on all cylinders. That's a very major part."

Snider previously told the gambling and metal show "Metal Casino Live" about "My Enemy's Enemy": "'My Enemy's Enemy' is powerfully disturbing. People said to me, after 'Strangeland', why didn't I do something else, and I said 'cause I didn't have an idea; I didn't wanna just do something typical. And there was a crime committed where I grew up on Long Island in 1982. It's considered the most horrible of crimes in the history of the area where I grew up. Each of the people convicted got 365 years in prison — each — for the crime. And I took that story, and I said, 'Well, what if…?' And I'm being very general, 'cause I don't wanna give away too much at this point. But I said, 'What if when this crime was happening, a Michael Myers or Jason Voorhees showed up — someone who was more evil. And 'My Enemy's Enemy' is about, can we join each other, when we're enemies, to fight a greater enemy? If you've just had horrible things done to you by people, but could you work with them to fight somebody who was even more horrible. So it's based on a true story, but then I just went with what I call the X factor and go into fantasy world. So I think people are gonna be very disturbed, but they're gonna enjoy it."
