Shia LaBeouf Directs Horrifying New Marilyn Manson Video - Watch Now

Following news that Transformers star Shia LaBeouf would be recording a documentary based on the making of Marilyn Manson’s new album, it has emerged that the Hollywood star has directed one of the goth icon’s music videos too.
The controversial singer’s eighth album has been a long time in the making, with writing, recording and production taking place for around two years. The album is currently untitled, but single ‘Born Villain’ has been broadcast with a music video directed by Shia, who is taking his turn in directing short films.
Considered by some to be a short film rather than a music video, ‘Born Villain’ is a typically gothic and dark track by Manson, and video is no different. The six-and-a-half minute long visual showcases the demented singer shaving and slowly caressing the now-bald heads of two woman, before embarking on a highly-disturbing adventure of piercing, pain, surgery, gore, baptism, torture, boobs (on YouTube?!), and general dying. You better watch this one quick (unless your easily offended/you have a weak stomach), as I’m not sure how this one will actually stay online before YouTube bosses freak-out.
Next time you’re watching Disney’s Holes or Even Stevens, or even Transformers or the Wall Street film, remember that that same innocent Shia LaBeouf directed the horrifying video you can watch below.
You have been warned...
