Yay Festivids!
Festivids 2015 dropped a week ago, but I haven't had a chance to make a post. So here it is.
First of all, I received *FOUR* vids this year. Honestly, I'm absolutely flummoxed and gratified that these even exist. That they are all amazing in their own way is just f**king sweet.
What's especially awesome is that there are now THREE vids for the 1977 what-the-eff-did-I-just-watch masterpiece Hausu that didn't exist before, and they all come from different angles:
Great White Cat (unexpected instrumental music choice works amazingly well)
A Happy Song Where Everybody Dies (bulletproof music kink + dark humor = EEEE)
Rock Lobster (lyrical resonance makes everything MORE WTF, not less)
None of the vids are safe-for-work and they all contain copious amounts of blood (well, red water). Also your brain my never be the same again.
Last but under no circumstances least is a vid for The Mummy (1932);
Love Lockdown
Oh my heart. This is exactly the kind of vid I was hoping for when I requested the source, but it exceeded all of my expectations by using a Kanye West song that dug to the eternal soul of the material. Plus more Boris Karloff vids are never a bad.
I haven't had a chance to do as much viewing as I'd like, but here are some of the vids that I really dug this year:
For the sake of ongoing mystery, I am not reccing anything that I have been guessed for. We'll see how those guesses turn out in a week.
