KISS: Alan Parker To Direct "You Wanted The Best… You Got The Best - The Official KISS Movie"


KISS has tapped Alan G. Parker to direct "You Wanted The Best… You Got The Best - The Official Kiss Movie".

When I asked director Alan G. Parker (via facebook) about the project, he answered: "Busy filming it at the moment... It's a documentary.... Watch this space....". 

He writes on his facebook page: "Tomorrow night we are interviewing Lydia Criss.... It's gonna be a thrill folks... Things are coming together very nicely on the KISS movie thus far... You Wanted The Best... We won't let you down...."

According to Classic Rock Magazine "You Wanted The Best… You Got The Best - The Official Kiss Movie" promises to offer the most in-depth look yet. KISS was formed in New York in the early '70s as Wicked Lester and went on to sell over 100 million albums world wide.

"We are thrilled to have Alan onboard to help tell the definitive KISS story, a story of insanity… dedication… and a take-no-prisoners attitude combining to create the most spectacular beast in rock 'n' roll history; KISS," says Paul Stanley.

Adds KISS manager Doc McGhee: "It's an epic undertaking and everyone’s committed 100 percent to bring this story to the big screen. We knew Alanwas the only man for the job and we can’t wait to get started."

"I'm incredibly proud to be on board for this film," says Parker, "telling the story of a band I love so much and that has such a rich history."

The movie will be the most intensive KISS documentary ever and will capture their career right from the start. Expect to see it on screens at some point next year.

Stay tuned for updates!
