There is a neat little write-up on the Adam Jones directed Tool videos, which you can find here:

http://loudwire.com/tool-videos-directed-by-adam-jones/

Seriously cool learning that their own guitarist was the mastermind behind these iconic videos. Somehow I'd gone this whole time without knowing that. :bang:

All the tool videos fit in this thread. Especially the early ones.

Adam Jones was inspired by The Brothers Quay, who were in turn inspired by Jan Svankmeyer.

My all time favorite Betty Boop sequence. Definitely weird and twisted but more importantly rotoscoped Cab Calloway and in HD! Go good!! FFW to 4:20 to see the ghost of Cab Calloway doing his thing.

Also - a lot darker and a lot more twisted or at least... spinning... very very fast, and in time with strobe lighting.

Heart Like A Rabbit

Weird, sick and twisted winner. Also profound to boot. If you like Monkey Dust or the Pearl Jam "Evolution" music video you will appreciate this one.

In Shadow.

and a classic one with pretty much the same themes but not as fancy animation.

In case anyone reading this thread isn't aware, you should definitely be watching The Shivering Truth on Adult Swim. It's Vernon Chatman's (Wonder Showzen, Heartshe Holler) latest. It's all done with real physical stop motion puppets. I heard Trey Parker's voice a couple of times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MA8UDhEDcP4

Gonna be honest here. I love most of Wondershowzen but I can't get in to The Shivering Truth.

Here is a weird, dark, and twisted animation but unfortunately low res. I just watched the HD version on a compilation DVD and it looks great so... uh... support the artist and buy the HD version. It's a great little short.
