- Wood says Manson scarred her with the letter "M" on her body.
- She says in the upcoming documentary, "
Phoenix Rising ," the letter is near her pelvic area.
In a new two-part HBO documentary, "Phoenix Rising,"
In part one, titled "Don't Fall," which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on Sunday (the entire documentary will premiere on HBO in March), Woods showed a photo of an "M" scar that she says is on her body, near her pelvic area, that Manson gave her.
After showing the picture of the scar, she said that she wants to get it removed but can't because "it's evidence."
The actress also said that she put an "E" scar on Manson's body. Wood did not go into detail in the documentary about how either scar was formed.
Insider has contacted Manson's manager and lawyer for comment.
In the documentary, Wood said this is an example of how Manson "groomed" her to be loyal to him.
The pair first met in 2006 at a party at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, Wood said in the documentary. At the time, she was 18 and Manson was 37.
Wood said Manson told her he was a fan of her 2003 movie "Thirteen," in which she played a rebellious teen. It led to the two beginning to see each other regularly, but Wood said in the documentary that it was all in the guise of her and Manson cowriting a script for the musician's now-defunct feature film project "Phantasmagoria," based on the poems of "Alice in Wonderland" author Lewis Carroll.
Eventually, Wood said Manson began making the relationship romantic, and the actress said that Manson kissing her was the "first time a man kissed me in real life," as opposed to on-screen kisses.
The two made their relationship public in 2007. They were briefly engaged before their relationship ended in 2010.
In the documentary, Wood described the beginning of their relationship as "very alluring and you want more."
Along with the claim that Manson gave her an "M" scar on her body, Wood also said in the documentary that Manson "essentially raped her" when they filmed the 2007 "Heart-Shaped Glasses (When the Heart Guides the Hand)" music video. Wood said in the documentary she and Manson "had discussed a simulated sex scene, but once the cameras were rolling, he started penetrating me for real."
Wood has previously made public allegations of abuse against Manson, including that he groomed her and he "horrifically" abused her as a teenager. Manson has denied these allegations.
