Canned Marilyn Manson Video Features Lana Del Rey

• 20th Nov 2014

Marilyn Manson has long been the king of shock rock but has he gone too far in this latest video?

Directed by Eli Roth (Hostel), footage has surfaced online from a video that was canned for being “so sick, it’s been locked in a vault for over a year” as Roth told Larry King in an interview last year.

Alongside scenes of inferred domestic violence, a man firing an automatic weapon onto a suburban highway, several acts of bondage and nudity, the most controversial aspect is a scene which seems to depict pop star Lana Del Rey being raped.

You can watch the video yourself here – let us know what you think, is this too far in the name of entertainment? Who’s to blame for this fairly tasteless gimmick – Manson, Roth or Del Rey?
