An official trailer for the film, The Damned: Don't You Wish That We Were Dead, the authorized documentary of the punk pioneers, can be seen below.
Directed/produced by Wes Orshoski (co-director/producer of “Lemmy”), the film features all four original members of The Damned (Captain Sensible, Dave Vanian, Brian James and Rat Scabies), plus appearances by Chrissie Hynde (Pretenders), Mick Jones (The Clash), Steve Diggle (Buzzcocks), actor/comedian Fred Armisen, Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), Duff McKagan (Guns N Roses), Lemmy Kilmister (Motörhead), Jack Grisham (T.S.O.L.), Keith Morris (Black Flag/Circle Jerks/OFF!), Dexter Holland (The Offspring) and many more.
Shot around the world over the past four years, the film will hit theatres this summer. The third prong in the holy trinity of UK punk, with the Sex Pistols and The Clash, The Damned were the first UK punks to release a single ("New Rose") and album (Damned Damned Damned), and the first to tour the US. Having logged hits in the punk, new wave and goth eras, they are one of the only surviving bands from punk’s first wave.
