Ozzy: Crown Prince of the Darkness

2002 · 1h 1m · Documentary

This documentary uses interviews with Ozzy and those closest to him, along with previously unseen footage, revealing the true, often misunderstood, story of the Madman of Rock!

While Ozzy Osbourne has always been one of the high priests of heavy metal music, it has only been the recent chain of events that has finally allowed him to lay claim to the papacy. With some 35 years in the business and a string of controversies under his belt, ranging from the oral decapitation of small animals to bladder relief on one of the USA's most sacred monuments, Ozzy has truly encapsulated the rock 'n' roll lifestyle. On this film we go behind the scenes and discover what it is that has driven this Brummie dropout to become Lord of the Manor, King of the Heap, and The Crown Prince of Darkness.
