Heavy Metal Fans Come Out To See 'God Bless Ozzy Osbourne' Documentary

September 1, 2011

According to KSEE-TV Channel 24, dozens of heavy metal fans came out to Edwards Theater in Fresno, California on August 24 to be the first to see "God Bless Ozzy Osbourne", the feature-length documentary about the life of the legendary heavy metal singer that Ozzy's son Jack co-produced.

Longtime Osbourne fans say they have waited years to see this film.

"I've been listening to him my whole life," said Fresno resident Raymond Ketchem. "My dad is a huge fan. He's actually in Dallas, Texas right now, watching the movie as well. It's definitely a family affair for sure."

During the documentary, Ozzy recounts his troubled youth, his early career with BLACK SABBATH and the impact of fame and addictions on his first marriage. Viewers also witness the second chapter of his life as a family man with Sharon, during which his addictions grew to a frightening level, as well as hear Ozzy and his children explain his attempts at staying clean, ultimately resulting in more than five years of sobriety. Music fans also see live performances from around the world, including rare behind-the-scenes clips of Ozzy on and off stage, in his dressing rooms pre-show, to his nights in a series of hotel rooms. Throughout "God Bless Ozzy Osbourne", audiences are given an inside look into the life of a rock star, from the good times to the bad.
