Metal Anarchy

Matt Zane is working on a new documentary focusing on the relationship between the late Wayne Static (Static-X) and the late Tera Wray. The filmmaker, who was a close friend of the married couple, will be launching a crowdfunding campaign for the project when production begins in January.

Zane said the following about his friendship with the couple:

“Most people are unaware that I knew Wayne for about 14 years, and I actually knew his wife Tera before him. We were all close, and I worked on every project he did after leaving Static-X.

He went on to discuss the film:

“I filmed bits and pieces over the years, but we needed a few solid weeks in the desert at their house to finish it — that was the plan. Unfortunately, funding fell through. I know this is something Wayne and Tera wanted to get done, and they wanted me to do it. I feel I owe them this — to tell their story the way they wanted it told.”

He also confirmed that it will include unreleased music:

“There’s about an EP’s worth of material Wayne and I recorded for a movie Tera was doing, but his label stepped in and stopped it. Some of those ideas ended up on ‘Pighammer’, but the rest has been sitting in my archives. I’m revisiting it now and will finish some of it with help from A.I. technology.”

Zane is currently seeking friends, colleagues, and associates who may have stories about the couple. Those interested can connect through EveryoneDiesTheMovie.com.

Notably, the documentary is unauthorized. Wayne Static and Tera Wray’s families and Static-X have no involvement.
