Out of all the music videos you've seen, which would you say are the most disturbing?

My choices:

"Happiness In Slavery"- Nine Inch Nails
"Smack My Bitch Up"- Prodigy
"Closer"- Nine Inch Nails
"Rock DJ"- Robbie Williams

Lucky - Britney Spears

Seriously though, I would say Windowlicker by Aphex Twin is very disturbing.

Pretty much anything done by Chris Cunningham, including "Windowlicker" which was mentioned.

His DVD has got to be one of the most bizarre experiences I have ever had.

Golden Earing - Twilight Zone- Kick ass 80's song that I still loooooove to this day. The only scence I personally squirm is the 3 (As I re-call) dominatrixes dancing around the lead singer while sitting in a chair and the 2 girls hold him down and the third girl injects this big ass needle into his arm. HELLO! :eek:


Mariah Carey - Loverboy
Other than Mariah typically slutting her way in every music video she does. What looked like a bandana should not be used as a clothing item. We don't want the twins to be falling out Ms. Carey. :rolleyes:

Planet P - Why Me?

Another time capsule 80's song....
The only thing I did not get about the video was the ending...WTF?!?


Kim Carnes - Vouyeur

The lesser known songs that went un-noticed. Vid is erotic but whats w/ the horse?


Ricky Martin - She Bang

I kinda question the part when Ricky gets into the shower and there's guys in there w/ him? Hmmmmmmmmm

George Michael - I Want Your Sex

Need I say More? ;)


Nada Surf - Popular

In reference to the Locker Room Scences, DAMN! How did they know? :D

Wang Chung - Everybody Have Fun Tonight

Don't stare at the video too long, the rumors are true...

EBN-OZN - AEIOU Sometimes Y

The school kids ranks up there w/ Pearl Jam's Jeremy...

Total Coelo - I Eat Cannibals

I still like the song to this day but those girls were scaaary as shit!

The Smashing Pumpkins' next-to-last video, Try, Try, Try. Sure, I'm a diehard Pumpkins fan, but this video was a little too much, Billy. See the uncensored UK version for clarity.

Plus, almost all of Tool's videos, save for their first one (what is it with them and stop-motion?).

When I was a kid, Rockwell's Somebody's Watching Me used to creep me out. Doesn't compare to what you see nowadays though...

Yeah, that's pretty disturbing...

Also, Tom Petty's necrophelia in Last Dance With Mary Jane... Tom Petty with a dead girl? You don't get much creepier than that.

Eddie Grant - Electric Avenue

You must wonder WHY am I mentioning this?
Well other than seeing Eddie get up from his chair in the living room and falling into water that motorcycle dude was scary IMO.


Duran Duran - Come Undone

One of my favorite slow songs from them but the images seen made me wonder, WTF?!? :D

I hadn't heard that till you said anything, but I researched it and he will be adaptaing William Gibson's novel, Neuromancer which is a strange Sci-Fi novel. It is said to be a homage to Blade Runner which is his favorite movie of all time.
I'm pretty excited for this now.

Anyways, more videos are...
Even though the band sucks, Prodigy's "Smack my bitch up" was pretty controversial. I only got a chance to see this video once, but I can't say I wanted to see it again.

Another Chris Cunningham's "Afrika Shox" by Leftfield & Afrika Bombaataa. This video is more ground-breaking than disturbing.

Those who haven't seen any other Cunningham's videos, these pictures pretty much sums it up for you...

I didn't say that I didn't like the video. I more or less hate the band. It was just like the thread states... disturbing.

I know, I just wanted to point out that I thought it was really cool and creative. So are the Cunningham videos, I just think he's a whack job.

Love you avatar, needless to say :cool:

i agree with Shiny Demon on "Mary Jane's Last Dance", but i also want to add Tom Petty's "Don't Come Around Here No More" video...


if your name is Alice and you see them eating that red velvet screaming Alice cake, it scars you for life...

Better yet, lock up both Aphex Twin and Chris Cunningham. Anyone who does this for an album cover should be shot:

The one where Britney Spears kissed Madonna... ugly bitches! Sorry I just hate those fucking artists. Most 80's videos were pretty fucked up. attention fevers and axegrinder. fevers: that fucking top picture is not gonna get out out of my mind. axe: those pictures are EVIL! Well you've officially scarred me with mutant chick and bikini man thanks a whole goddamn lot! just kidding. those pictures are pretty fucked up though. And wher is that Alphex Twin guy so I can slice his guts open?

Twiztid: We don't Die
Since most of you have never seen it I'll give ya a quick overview.
The video starts with two bodies being dragged by two men. We can see that the men dragging the bodies are Jamie Maddrox and Monoxide(Twiztid) in full makeup, but we are still uncertain who they are dragging.
They drive up to an already dug grave where they throw in the two bodies. We see that the people they throw in are not only alive, but they are Madrox and Monoxide without paint.
Twiztid pour gasoline on the bodies as they try to climb out then they burn them alive.

'Jeremy' was pretty fucked up, it was such a great video! The original ending was disturbing, but when they edited it to the version most people saw when it came out It didn't make any sense. So my vote goes to Jeremy.

That would be Me Against The Music. Mad Tv on Fox did an AWESOME parody. It even overshadowed the actual video itself. They made Madonna very old looking and she chasing after the actress playing Britney in a cane. :D That was 3 minutes of funny shite. ;)

I think that Bowie's "Heart's Filthy Lesson" video is more disturbing. "Ashes to Ashes" was just surreal. Both great songs, though.

Nine Inch Nails "Happiness In Slavery" video is quite disturbing. It has the ultimate "weird" feel to it while you're watching it. When the man gets grinded up into ground beef and it's slowly slopping out of the machine is pretty disgusting... but overall it’s a really cool video.

"Happiness in Slavery" and "Closer" are tame compared to the Broken movie.

the whole VHS tape for NIN's - Closure is pretty disturbing but good. and those Aphex Twin videos are pretty creepy as well.

It may sound stupid but "Rockit" by Herbie Hancock gave me nightmares as a kid. I was about 5 when that came out and all those robot looking things freaked me out!!!! I still hate to watch that video even today when I am 24!!

Another one that bother me as a kid was a song by Phil Collins and the video was nothing but puppets of famous people, like Ronald Reagan and Stallone, that one freaked me out too.

I do agree with Happiness in Slavery by NIN and also Come to Daddy by Aphex Twin.

I woke up at 2am and the tv was on MTV2 and Come to Daddy was on, at the part with the midgets running around and the monster yelling at the old woman. Did make it hard to go back to sleep.

Agreed for Rock DJ by Robbie Williams and Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden. Also, Pink by Aerosmith. Some crazy stuff in that one.

Anything by Cannibal Corpse, they kick arse. Plus that fucking amazing vid on the Mordum dvd by Necrophagia. It's some great shit.

Aphex twin is probably the most disturbing though, just for that one vid where that thing came out the telly and screamed at that old lady, NOW THAT WAS WEIRD. Can someone see if they can find a pic of that?? The most disturbing thing was that she just stood there. Doing nout.

I've just downloaded that Come to daddy video. Now that's some evil shit. Really creative though, i don't see why people would take much offence.
