shareYou know what film they need to make? Not an official biopic about Led Zeppelin, but the *legend* swirling around the Led Zep legacy.
So there are various versions of this old story but basically: This band hits it big during the height of seventies decadence and gets well known for horrible decadent behavior, but that isn't enough for their leader, so he starts dabbling in black magic and the occult. And gets two of the other band members to participate in his eeeeevil rituals, but the one decent guy in the band refuses. So the band members bring a curse on the band through getting some of their black magic wrong, and one band member chokes on his own vomit, and one is smashed to bits in a car wreck and has a child die, and the leader guy gets so addicted to heroin that he becomes one of the Living Dead...
Of course it's probably all bullshit, and even if it's totally real the surviving Led Zepelin guys would never allow that to be filmed. But wouldn't it make a great movie about seventies decadence?
