Zombie was set to make his directorial debut with the film The Crow: 2037, and even wrote the film's script. https://web.archive.org/web/20130515131955/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1428859/zombie-will-write-direct-next-crow-flick.jhtml The film was set to take place in the future, though it was never released. It was decided that the film was not suited for the franchise, but would instead serve as a standalone project. http://www.experts123.com/q/what-happened-to-the-rob-zombie-script-for-crow-2037.html He composed the original score for the video game Twisted Metal III, released in 1998. http://www.gamerevolution.com/review/twisted-metal-iii Zombie designed a haunted attraction for Universal Studios in 1999, which was later deemed instrumental in reviving the Halloween Horror Nights annual attraction. http://www.christiandivine.com/RobZombie.htm It was during this time that Zombie began working with the studio on his directorial debut, a film titled House of 1000 Corpses. The project began filming in May 2000, with a scheduled release date of the following year, though the studio ultimately cancelled its release due to the violent themes present throughout the film. http://wn.com/original_universal_house_of_1000_corpses_trailer_rare
