Geto Boys, “My Mind Playing Tricks on Me” (1991) The setting is not as secluded as the screamo band thinks: the foursome encounters a creepy man in a suit, a blood-covered blonde girl and someone dressed in a bear costume in this re-imagining of “The Shining.”ĩ. “There’s not gonna be a single living soul here,” Jared Leto tells his bandmates as they pull up to an abandoned hotel at the beginning of this clip. 30 Seconds to Mars, “The Kill (Bury Me)” (2006) This creepy video, directed by French filmmaker Tony ‘Traund’ Datis, adds a terrifying visual punch to Skrillex’s brutal barrage of beats.ġ0.

Behold the freakiest 98 seconds in British rock history. The Horrors, “Sheena Is A Parasite” (2006)Īt first, it seems like Sheena (Oscar nominee Samantha Morton) just has a twitchy way of getting her groove on, but the gruesome surprise she has waiting under her pretty white dress isn’t quite so pretty. Before vampires were a a certifiable trend, Chris Brown cast a sexy fang-toothed female companion in his 2007 video for “Wall to Wall.” Brown doesn’t seem to mind the bites - just so long as vampiredom doesn’t affect his dance moves.ġ4.
