Hard rocker and horror film director Rob Zombie has revealed that he has now included directing commercials into his large portfolio of work. His first foray into the commercial production industry found him directing the latest television adverts for laundry detergent company Woolite, filmed in the classic Rob Zombie horror style. Rob commented on the commercial by saying:

"The funny thing is a lot of people are like, 'Oh it's so weird that you're doing this' but every single director does it, it's just that they don't usually mention it. I could've easily done that commercial and never said a word and no one would ever know but I thought it was funny so I told people about it."

You can check out the commercial in the player below.

That's awesome. There are channels that could air that. You don't exactly air the same every day commercials on Syfy vs Spike vs Hallmark channel, so there's always a place for it.

RTB, that's probably why he talked about not telling people. Like how he easily could've just done it without saying anything cause he knew people were gonna give him sh** for it. But I'm with you I liked it. More big name directors should do commercials. That'd be awesome.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but we don't remove videos ourselves. The video was posted by Woolite's own official YouTube as well so I'm surprised that its gone. Maybe they are moving it to full television circulation? Not sure.
