More Films=More Fun

So as i posted before (my exorcist video) I've done a little more looking into creepy things
it really started when i drew a clown the other day, which i thought was rather creepy. so i looked up creepy clown paintings and came across some done by John Wayne Gacy, who, for those who don't know, is a convicted serial killer. this led me to do a little research into various serial killers, one be Charles Manson. What interested me about him was his music. It is the most disturbing thing, even before you find out that it him. doing a little research into him i found that these disgusting Helter Skelter things he preached have wormed their way in enough for people to still want to join his 'Family". What i found more interesting though is that these wierd little songs Manson had created even got covered by Guns 'n' Roses, in which they then had to pay royalties to the Tate family.
the thing is though that they could've released this song and had people like it, like the song of a serial killer who couldn't even get a record deal before he was convicted.

anyway i found this song called 'Mechanical Man' by Manson and thought it's add an interesting quality to a video. so i decided to combine it with some old home movies and see how just changing music really changes how we view something.


I then took what i like best form this a combined it with some recent film to make a conceptual comparison between then and now. i really like this because it disturbs me .


the i decided to combine the song the exorcist spider walk and the video text form 'wath my face to read my thought' that was previously mentioned


I hope you like them in a weird horrible way :)
