Australian dance act Dubmarine have taken their cues from cheesy Japanese monster movies to create the music video for their new single “Point the Bone.”
The stop-motion animated clip features an epic showdown between a robot and an octopus! I’ve got no idea what that has to do with the dance song it accompanies, but the video looks so cool that it hardly matters.
And before you call me out on the octopus thing, I know the creature has five legs. However this stylistic decision was made to emulate the six-tentacled octopus created for the retro film It Came From Beneath the Sea. See, it’s not laziness, just film geekery!
Animator Debbie Steer took some 200 hours to painstakingly put the music video together, so I reckon it deserves to be seen by a few people. Such efforts shouldn’t go unrewarded!
