Director Chris Cunningham

[CMH]

I'm hoping the mature public here in OS can handle something like this. I thought it would be great to bring up director, Chris Cunningham along with some embedded music videos he's directed.

I'm sure music/film video buffs will think it's cliche to bring him up, but he's clearly a great director with an amazing ability to both humor and scare an audience in one 5 minute sitting.

His videos are strange, weird, and disturbing. Yet, they are also brilliant, amazing, and interesting.

If you are tired of typical music videos then I invite you to view some of these I posted and to also search for the many others he has directed.

I have left warnings for those videos that should not be seen by anyone that can not handle the suggested material.

P.S. His Aphex Twin videos are TT.

Re: Director Chris Cunningham

The Aphex Twins scared the stuffing out of me when I seen it at 2am in the night...It's up there with Smack my bitch up..This was all on MTV's countdown list.

Re: Director Chris Cunningham

Aphex Twin's "Rubber Johnny" is probably the freakiest video I've seen. The opening sequence of that video is straight out of a horror flick.

I'm surprised Cunningham hasn't directed a full-feature horror movie. He would be a good fit for the right script.
