There doesn’t seem to be a ton of information about new band ‘Love Automatic‘ on the intertubes yet, but they have a video out now that is making its way around the horror scene:

The ultimate experience in clay stop-motion animated grueling terror. Ghosts, spooks, undead zombies, ghouls, sexy lady and not to mention a CHAINSAW!! Revvvv-it-up! Love Automatic is a New York band made up of ex-members from Sense Fail & Armor for Sleep. Their EP debut ‘Organ Donor’ is now available for download from major retailers.

Delving a little deeper things start to make sense when it becomes apparent that the video in question is a claymation piece from noted Living Supremacist Lee Hardcastle, whose work was previously discussed on the ZRC blog here.

What, then, is ‘Nightmare’ like? Well, it’s the Youtube age, so why not check it out yourself first:

As you can see, ‘Nightmare’ is a pastiche of classic horror elements and films, including some very obvious Ghostbusters references. Storywise, however, this is another Raimi-esque attempt to demonize, well, demons, freshly come back from the great beyond and understandably upset at Living interlopers. For some reason it’s always the DEMONS’ fault that some low-information college kids, quasi-scientists or frauds read from the Forbidden book in the haunted house at midnight.

Really? Really.

Naturally this video is gruesome, full of pointless and insensate violence, directed at both the Living and the Differently Animated, but clearly serving as an indictment of only one involved party.

The ZRC thus rates it as being Living Supremacist. For shame, Mr. Hardcastle, for shame.
