These words frighten SLOG:

O Beautiful, for spacious skies.
For amber waves of grain.
For purple mountain majesty,
above the fruited plains.

MY COUNTRY IS A BEE
SWEET LAND OF LIVER TEA
A BEE I SEE!

LAND WHERE MY FATHERS HIDE
LAND THAT THE PILGRIMS TRIED
FROM EVERY MOUNTAIN-SLIDE
LET FREE DUMB BRING!

I don't get it either. I thought there was something wrong with my computer's audio.

That person needs to unwatch Eraserhead and then make that video again.

I looked in the comments hoping one of you arty-literati would explain it to me. It was bargain-basement Un Chien Andalou near as I could tell.

I always found this work by Chris Cunninhgham to be pretty scary. Relates to a big fear of deformity and neglect. It gets wacky crazy Aphex Twinned but it still irques a fear of the dark and how adults with children's minds scare me!!

I always thought this (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7382676545570345084) by Chris Cunningham was pretty scary. It touches on a fear of deformity and of neglect. It gets a bit music videoy (which i like as well) but nonetheless leaves me a little chilled.
