Music Video of The Day: Lady Marmalade by All Saints (1997, dir by ????)


Seeing as how it’s All Saints Day, how about a video from All Saints?

Enjoy!  I’ll just be over her passed out for the rest of the month.  Putting together a 480+ post October horrorthon is hard work!  Luckily, I’ve got a month to recover.

Music Video of the Day: Shia LaBeouf by Rob Cantor (2014, dir by Scott Uhlfelder)


Did you know that Shia LaBeouf was an actual cannibal?

Well, after watching this video, you do now!  And I know that the song claims that Shia LaBeouf has been defeated but you know the first rule of horror.  Shia LaBeouf is never totally gone.

Actually, I should take this time to point out that, despite his somewhat obnoxious public persona, Shia LaBeouf has given some surprisingly good performances over the years.  It’s easy to make fun of him for doing that whole 24-hour Come-Yell-At-Trump webcam thing a few years ago but, at the same time, he was pretty good in American Honey and The Peanut Butter Falcon.

And, even more importantly, he’s a good enough sport to show up here, applauding his decapitation.  Trust me when I say that Sean Penn would not do the same.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Reality by Crud (2009, dir by ????)


Okay, so I guess you can question whether or not this should be considered an official video.

But it’s close enough, in my opinion!  This video features footage of Crud performing their song Reality at Detroit’s Theater of the Bizarre.  I’ve never been to The Theater of the Bizarre or to Detroit, for that matter.  But it does look like it would be a kickass place to spend Halloween.

Actually, isn’t Detroit where they burn down empty buildings on the night before Halloween?

Anyway, enjoy!

Music Video Of The Day: Soul Dracula by Hot Blood (1977, dir by ????)


Uhmmm …. I’m not sure what you just watched either.  Apparently, it’s Dracula with a disco tinge and, of course, if it’s disco and it involves vampires, there’s no way that I couldn’t share it.  But I have to say, having watched this video, that Dracula’s not looking too good.  And he’s kind of acting more like a zombie than vampire.  I’m kinda suspecting that maybe Dracula was out all night snorting cocaine at Plato’s Retreat because he looks seriously wasted in this video.  Hopefully, that blood will help him out.

That said, if there’s any creature of the night who seems to have been created specifically for the disco era, it’s Dracula.  Get down, Drac!

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Zombie Love by Lost in Atlantis (2018, dir by Raul Gonzo)


Awwwww!  Even zombies occasionally just need a night to go out and have some fun.

I like this video.  Far too often, zombie videos are too serious for their own good.  This video actually has some fun with the living dead and it ends with a nice little twist.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Zombie by Radiation City (2013, dir by Matthew Gamlen)


Apparently, the world’s ending but, fortunately, your boyfriend’s built an underground bunker!

Unfortunately, you now have to live down there with them and I don’t care how much you love someone, you still occasionally need some alone time.  Perhaps if he had built a bigger bunker, you wouldn’t be going as stir-crazy but, as usual, no one asked you how big the bunker should be.  Instead, they just said, “Get down there in case the world ends!”

And so, you flee.  You break out.  You confront the brave new world that is rising from the ashes of the old one.

Of course, a few weeks later, you lose all your hair and you die a slow and agonizing death from radiation poisoning.  Fortunately, your boyfriend will probably die too.  That’ll teach him to try to put you in a corner.

Anyway, this is an absolutely great video, both wonderfully directed and acted.  That’s Cori Benesh and Hill Hudson as the couple in the bunker and they’re so empathetic and believable that you really do cringe when you realize how radioactive the sand between their toes probably is.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Zombie by Jamie T (2014, dir by James Slater)


What if you turned into a zombie and nobody noticed?

Now, in defense of the pup patrons in this video, when was the last time you ever really paid attention to the band playing at your favorite bar?  I mean, I always do but that’s just because I don’t drink so I always have to find something to do while everyone else is getting drunk.  So, I probably would have noticed Jamie T. transforming into the undead but I doubt I would have said something just because it’s 2019 and who wants to be a snitch?

My favorite person in this video is the drummer, mostly because she’s not going to let anything — even a discarded arm — keep her from keeping the beat.

Enjoy!
