(antiMusic) Metallica were already multiplatinum selling metal superstars before you saw them on MTV. In fact, the band managed to release a string of albums before producing their very first music video which they did for the song "One" off of 1988's "...And Justice For All." What made the clip unique, aside from being the band's debut video, was the use of clips from the film "Johnnie Got His Gun" to fuse together the storyline. Now the band is happy to report that the film is finally being released on DVD and the release will include the band's famed video as a bonus.

Here is what they had to say on their website: Over the years many of you have asked about the film footage used in the video for "One" and now that cult classic, Johnny Got His Gun, is available on DVD. Including bonus features and our video for "One," the movie tells the story of an American soldier wounded on the last day of World War I as he relives his life through strange dreams, memories, and conversations with Jesus.

The screenplay was written by Dalton Trumbo (he also wrote the book in the 1930's), who later went on to achieve fame for his work on Exodus and Spartacus in the '60's. - Watch the trailer right here
