Music Video of the Day: Beautiful Thing by Alexis Taylor (2018, dir by Edwin Burdis)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

For whatever reason, this video reminds me of the classic Jean Rollin film, The Grapes of Death.  Maybe it’s all the ominous shots of what, on the surface, appears to be a tranquil countryside.

Or maybe I just naturally compare everything that I see to a Jean Rollin film.

Regardless, enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Make Me Uncomfortable by Seavera (2018, dir by Josh Harris)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

This is definitely one of the creepier videos that I’ve seen this year.  Of course, I also recently rewatched a Canadian film called Ticket to Heaven, which was all about strange cults and stuff.  This video definitely reminded me of not only that movie but also 2011’s Sound of My Voice.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: The Flood by Katie Melua (2010, dir by Kevin Godley)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Today, I decided to go with this music video because it’s been raining non-stop since Monday and I have a feeling that, on Thursday morning, I’m going look outside and discover that I’m right in the middle of a flood myself.

Plus, this video has a bunch of half-naked men doing Spartan stuff with their staffs.  That’s always a plus.

Enjoy!

Music Video Of The Day: Modern Parenting by Creep Show (2018, dir by Chris Turner)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

“Agck!”

That’s the best way that I can sum up my reaction to today’s music video of the day.  This video is for Creep Show’s Modern Parenting and it’s the type of video that makes you want to pick up the phone and call whoever it is that you should call when children are living in deserted buildings and destroying televisions.

That said, I like this video.  I like the atmosphere of that deserted building.  Being young, alone, and angry is both scary and exhilarating and this video captures that feeling.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Knights of Cydonia by Muse (2006, dir by Joseph Kahn)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

What happens if you mash together every single European grindhouse film ever made and then get Muse to provide the soundtrack?

You end up with the video for Knights of Cydonia.

The fun here, of course, is identifying all of the films that are referenced in this video.  Obviously, there’s a lot of Sergio Leone there.  There’s also some karate action and a Planet of the Apes reference.  Whenever the cowboys shoot their laser guns, I’m reminded of one of Lucio Fulci’s post-apocalyptic films.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Move by Saint Motel (2016, dir by ????)

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

For today’s music video of the day, we have another video from one of my favorite groups, Saint Motel!

Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes on your local newscast?  Chaos, apparently.

The satirical subtext and retro feel of this video will be familiar to anyone who has ever watched the video for Saint Motel’s My Type.

Enjoy!

Hell’s Kitty: ChainSaw Kitty Video

Posted on by paddiesthoughts

Y’all remember when I previewed Hell’s Kitty: Movie Preview, Review and Trailer Well, we got a bit more to see!

Actually, there is a terrifying music video to go a long with it!

ABOUT THE SONG – CHAINSAW KITTY

The writer / director Nicholas Tana (Sticky: A (Self) Love Story), who also appears in the film, worked closely with the Hell’s Kitty composer, Richard Albert (Losing Touch), to create music for the film that properly reflects the movie’s antagonist, Angel. Angel is a cute and loving cat with an evil, jealous side to her often onerous personality, both supernatural and schizophrenic. CHAINSAW KITTY, was written, performed, and recorded by Richard Albert(Losing Touch) with lyrics by Nicholas Tana (Sticky: A (Self) Love Story). The song was originally intended for a scene with Lou Ferrigno (The Incredible Hulk), in which the cat’s claws turned into chain saws. Though that particular scene was never shot, the creators, Nicholas Tana, and producer Denise Acosta, loved the music enough to include it in another scene involving Ashley C. Williams (The Human Centipede) and Barbara Nedeljakova (Hostel), rocking out to it on all fours! *via press release

Here, you can see this awesomely terrifying video:

 

BTW: Puuurrchase this movie as soon as you can! 

“Hell’s Kitty” will be available on VOD March 13th and on DVD March 27th!

To kick of the movie release and to share their love for cats, the creators behind the film teamed with HOLLYSHORTS MONTHLY SCREENINGS and the TLC CHINESE THEATER recently hosted a premiere at the legendary theatre to raise money for FixNation.org. FixNation provides a free, full-time spay/neuter clinic with two full-time veterinarians capable of sterilizing as many as 100 cats per day. They also help hundreds of cats find suitable homes.
