Trying to find two videos

Trying to find two videos

Postby RDD1977 » Sat Aug 12, 2017 8:49 am

Hello everyone, I’m new to the forum, and a big fan of new wave.

I have a question about two 80’s (I think they’re from the 80’s) music videos. These two videos scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. I can’t remember the names of the bands, or songs. All I can remember is the images in the videos. I’ve been trying to find them with no luck. I’m hoping someone here can help.

The first video had a science fiction theme to it. If I remember correctly it was a bunch of people enslaved, and working in some kind of mine. With some freaky looking lizard like alien in a chair high up over them over seeing the work. Then the humans break free, and there is a big battle.

The next one freaked me out even more. All I remember in the video was a fetus floating in space. The camera pans in close to it, and it’s eyes are all black. The fetus looks towards the camera. Then instantly it turns to a full grown mans head, and screams at the camera. With the eyes still all black.

I hope someone here can help me out.

Yes that is the video I was thinking of. That opening literally scared the crap clean out of me when I was a kid. I watch it now, and I can't believe I was scared by it.
Thank you so much for posting that video Freshy.
