Cruising youtube I came across the music video for one of my all time favorite Bee Gees jams and its a beaut. It has an eerie suspenseful vibe given all the smoke, vaseline lighting, doppelganger imagery and Samantha Sang's resemblance to Dr. Robert Elliot
Is it me or are the close ups used in a threatening/seriously frightening manner? As it zooms in to a degree that makes the viewer [or at least me] uncomfortable and Samantha coos "where are you now? Now that I need you? " you can't discern whether she wants to give you a baby kiss on the lips or slash your throat with a razor. I think De Palma would approve.
