Scholar “No Yes No” Music Video Premiere
Bloody-Disgusting has teamed up with punk rock band Scholar to bring you the exclusive music video premiere for their track “No Yes No”, which comes from their debut full length Choose Adventure. The video is described by director Alex DiVincenzo as, “inspired by The Twilight Zone” and features a hefty dose of blood! You can check it out below!
You can purchase Choose Adventure through the following links: Scholar, Bandcamp, iTunes, or Amazon.
Quote from guitarist James Cilano:
The concept for the ‘No, Yes… No’ video stemmed from the desire to showcase the anxiety of wrestling your true passions with the minutia of living a 9-5 life. Our dreams are what should truly drive us, and indecision can entrap us somewhere we don’t really want to be. With no budget and 2 locations, we’re proud of how everything came to fruition. Also, we got to cover our singer in tons of blood, so that’s always a great time.
Quote from director Alex DiVincenzo:
I’m very happy to have worked with my good friends in Scholar on my first music video. Armed with only my camera and a bucket of blood, we set out to make a video for fun – and I think we succeeded. We wanted to do something more interesting than the typical band-playing-in-a-room video, so we hatched an idea inspired by The Twilight Zone. But I still wanted to showcase the band’s energetic performance, so we spent a night filming them playing the song ad nauseum in their dingy practice space during a snow storm with no heat.

A gnarly infection threatens to claw its way out of a moving camper in the first trailer for Shudder’s claustrophobic Hellcat.
The feature debut of writer/editor/director Brock Bodell, who previously edited the Fantasia title Ultrasound, makes its debut on Shudder on August 14.
In Hellcat, “Lena wakes up in a moving camper trailer with a horrifying wound. She’s warned by the driver that they have one hour to get to a doctor, or she’ll succumb to an unimaginably awful fate. As the pain sets in and reality begins to fray, who should really be afraid?”
Dakota Gorman (Natural Disasters) leads the cast that also includes Todd Terry (“Breaking Bad”), Liz Atwater (The Other People), Jordan Mullins (The Bikeriders), and James Austin Johnson (“Saturday Night Live”) in a voice role. Bodell also produces alongside Andrew Duensing and Nate Eggert.
Hellcat made its world premiere last summer at Fantasia. I wrote in my review, “Hellcat is a bit of a Trojan horror that defies easy classification, by design. Bodell’s sneaky debut feature is occasionally too sparse in its worldbuilding in its bid to preserve the mystery, but not enough to detract from the thrilling road thriller that transforms into a completely left-field type of horror we don’t get nearly enough of. The stripped-down tribute to a classic horror staple catches you off guard in more ways than one, marking Bodell as one to watch.”
In other words, there’s a lot more than meets the eye to Hellcat‘s simple infection setup, delivering plenty of surprises along its bumpy road of horrors.
Check out the trailer and poster below and add Hellcat to your watchlists asap.
