Manson takes on gruesome movie

Marilyn Manson has signed to star as a hideous ancient prophet who "eats ostriches and rapes women" in a new supernatural vampire movie.

The shock rocker will star alongside Nick Nolte in King Shot.

He reveals: "I'll be playing a 400-year-old prophet that lives in a hole in the ground and eats skinned ostriches and rapes women. And has thorns for teeth that come out of his lips. I'm not exaggerating."
