Xof Vid: "Bad Moon Rising" - Buddy Boy - Aidan Gillen

Okay - so vid #6 is an odd puppy...lol.!!! But given the movie I was working with....

Aidan Gillen went almost directly from playing Stuart Alan Jones in the UK QAF, to playing, well - someone sooooooo incredibly left-field he's almost unrecognizable. Which goes to show how incredibly talented the man is, folks.

And so I give you a look at Aidan Gillen in the movie "Buddy Boy" -

Title: "Bad Moon Rising"
Song: Rasputina
Vidder: Xof
Focus: Francis from "Buddy Boy"
Star: Aidan Gillen, baby!!!
Rating: PG
Format: .wmv
Length: 3:43 mins
File Size: 21.2 MB

Theme: How's a man to know if he's losing his mind? What if it isn't just in his head, but it's everyone around him that's mad? Francis - a shy, reclusive - uhm, kinda momma's boy...lol (that's an in-joke) who's drowning in the darkness of his own life, and the lies that surround all those he knows. That is when he's not playing peeping tom on the neighbors...lol.

Editor's Note: Probably Aidan's oddest movie to date - and that's saying something! He studders, quints, chews his lip and wades through one dark sequence after another - in a film where you have no idea what's happening, and the writer/director likes it that way! Is his girlfriend an innocent vegan who loves him? Or is she a murdering cannibal who's - literally - after his head? Is a patron of the local film store a pedophile? And then there's the question of the two bodies in the bathtub...snicker. It's a true experience, but one that showcases Aidan in almost every frame.

Dedicated to Margo. I know, I know - it's a friggin' odd choice...lol - but I figured it would be a timely thank you.

Here's hoping you like the video - or at least the subject...lol. I quite enjoyed the song, btw - it's a cover of the original "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Rasputina's version is almost a completely new song - eerie and dark, just like the film. If you have a chance, drop me a line and let me know what you think? It's much appreciated in advance.
