Aphex Twin
Aphex Twin's "Come to Daddy" is a full-blown horror film that famously started out as a joke. Directed by Cunningham, Chris, the video takes the song's original intent—a parody of aggressive techno—and visualizes it in the most terrifying way possible. The unsettling effect of the children with the artist's face was a blend of practical masks and digital warping, and the screaming creature at the end was the director himself in prosthetics. It’s a landmark of the genre, a perfect example of a director and artist using a commercial form to create something genuinely nightmarish.
