AMDRO ANT BLOCK: “THE ANTS GO MARCHING”

WOOLITE COMMERCIAL
Rob Zombie adds a touch of horror to this commercial for Woolite detergent. Speaking about the commercial to Nerdist, Rob said “I got a call that this ad agency had pitched this crazy idea to Woolite, and they wanted me to direct it. They essentially wanted a commercial that the first half resembled a horror movie trailer. They needed something along those lines, and they thought I could handle it. It was fun.”
ASSASSIN’S CREED UNITY: “FRENCH REVOLUTION”
In 2014, Rob Zombie teamed up with Tony Moore, to direct this short for Assassin’s Creed Unity. The clip is a retelling of the French Revolution, the period in which the game is set.
