Rating: Summary: not that big a deal Review: Okay. The uncensored 'It's Comin' Down' video doesn't contain mind-warping nightmare-inducing earth-shattering imagery. It's a little kinky, in kind of a sad s&m way, but really, the thing everyone is making a fuss about really isn't that big a deal. C'mon y'all - it's just genital piercing. If you're a Danzig fan, you ought to own this DVD. But don't buy it just because you need to see whatever it is in the 'It's Comin' Down' video that everyone else thinks is so heavy and intense. Unless penile piercings really turn you on or freak you out.

Rating: Summary: Good but... Review: The reason I give this DVD four stars instead of five is because I'll take unreleased Danzig videos anytime. It could've gotten five if there were some bonus features on here, such as Glenn's creepy, dark humor when he's talking to people backstage or being interviewed that we Danzig fans all love from the guy. I have to say that although I've always felt that I'm as hardened a Danzig fan as they come and I could take anything dark or creepy that Glenn Danzig could throw our way, when I saw the TOTALLY UNSENCORED video for "It's Coming Down", even I was like "WOOAAAHHH, Glenn!!........" and not in a great way..it's a hell of alot more than I was expecting...what was in that video? Can't give it away...just pick it up and you'll see what I'm talking about..I'm still saying "WOOOOOAAAHHH!! Glenn......" But that aside, any Danzig freak MUST pick this DVD up for your collection. It would be a great idea to see the other two former Danzig home videos, "Lucifuge: The Videos" and "Danzig" re-released together on one or separate DVDs in the future. As far as the videos in this new DVD, all the videos are damn dark, cool and creepy. Unfortunately, the Sistinas video is a newer one, but a song as unbelievable and awesome as Sistinas deserves a video made for it, new or old.
Rating: Summary: Great Danzig Review: this dvd has a lot of great stuff from the original band. The performance's are good the girl's are hot!!!The only draw back is that there are no interview's or any of the video's from danzig 1 and 2 and no special features.{hence only 4 stars}If you are a Danzig fan, don't hesitate to buy it this was Danzig's best band and to see them play, is worth the money alone.The mother video is great for all of us who saw this band,to see just how good this band really was!!!
Rating: Summary: We want more!!! Review: This was worth it alone for the videos Dirty Black Summer, Mother and It's Going Down, but as has been mentioned in every review so far, I wanted more. Some backstage footage, interviews, something - more so, because this was my favorite era of the band. Eerie, John and Chuck were still in the fold, and most of the videos come from my favorite Danzig album (III How the Gods Kill). While the aformentioned videos were very cool (I remeber the first time I saw them on MTV's Headbanger's Ball, so cool memories), a few were disappointing, like the How the Gods Kill video. Sistinas is a beautiful song, worthy of so much more than what is on the disc. The Bodies videos were cool, just the guys jamming, but I would love to see a 'real' video for this song. The alternative takes of each video were okay, but I probably wouldn't watch them again. But being the completist, I was glad they were there. Now that we're on the subject of different versions, the It's Coming Down extreme version is a hot topic among fans. Let me just say that I have a pretty strong stomach and I won't be watching that one again. I like the first version, the clean one, because it's just Glenn and the band rocking out in a dungeon. Great photography, simple (same reason I like Dirty Black Summer's video), and almost like seeing them live. Glenn's charisma as a frontman shows through, and I dig it. I am a huge fan, so this DVD was well worth picking up. The only reason it doesn't get five stars is the lack of extras. I just wanted more!
