[Exclusive] Check Out The Wildly Inventive Sun Angle “Raspberry” Music Video Premiere
Bloody-Disgusting has teamed up with Portland, Oregon rockers Sun Angle to bring you their amazing animated music video for “Raspberry”. Painstakingly hand drawn by bassist Marius Libman over the course of several months, the video pays homage to some of the greatest scenes in 80’s sci-fi/horror, including Poltergeist, Total Recall, Videodrome, Scanners, Ghoulies, and much, much more.
“Raspberry” comes from the band’s debut album Diamond Junk, which was produced by Menomena‘s Danny Seim. You can purchase the album on iTunes or through the New Moss Records Store.
Head on below to check out this awesome video!
Libman elaborates, “Animation is, at it’s core, a psychedelic medium. And I think of the noise we make as a band as a kind of a musical non sequitur, so it seemed fitting to create a music video that expressed that same psychedelic break-away from linear logic in animated form.
Seeing these fantastical, often surreal moments as cartoons gives an oddly buffered yet intensified feel. Things that are almost grotesque-but-funny in their unnaturalness – the fevered face peeling in Poltergeist, the deadly application of a basketball in Deadly Friend, a newly appeared and gun-hungry orifice in Videodrome – are pushed further in both their uneasy hilarity and their grotesqueness at the same time.
Animation is also a medium best left to the obsessive – thankfully I fit the bill. I’d never animated a thing in my life before taking this on, and the overwhelming amount of time and effort that went in to its creation was more than I’d anticipated. After months of work and endless hours of painstaking frame by frame drawing, I’m thrilled to be done and excited to share the finished product.”

‘Dancing Village: The Curse Begins’ – Exclusive Clip and Images Begin a Gruesome Indonesian Nightmare
Indonesian filmmaker Kimo Stamboel (Macabre, Headshot, The Queen of Black Magic) is back in the director’s chair for MD Pictures’ Badarawuhi Di Desa Penari (aka Dancing Village: The Curse Begins), a prequel to the Indonesian box office hit KKN Curse Of The Dancing Village. Lionsgate brings the film to U.S. theaters on April 26.
While you wait, whet your appetite for gruesome horror with a gnarly exclusive clip from Dancing Village: The Curse Begins below, along with a gallery of bloody exclusive images.
In the horror prequel, “A shaman instructs Mila to return a mystical bracelet, the Kawaturih, to the ‘Dancing Village,’ a remote site on the easternmost tip of Java Island. Joined by her cousin, Yuda, and his friends Jito and Arya, Mila arrives on the island only to discover that the village elder has passed away, and that the new guardian, Mbah Buyut, isn’t present.
“Various strange and eerie events occur while awaiting Mbah Buyut’s return, including Mila being visited by Badarawuhi, a mysterious, mythical being who rules the village. When she decides to return the Kawaturih without the help of Mgah Buyut, Mila threatens the village’s safety, and she must join a ritual to select the new ‘Dawuh,’ a cursed soul forced to dance for the rest of her life.”
Kimo Stamboel directs from a screenplay by Lele Laila.
