This is like a sequel to a Carpenter Brut music video that had a nice visual-effects-heavy vibe and halfway story. I would've liked it more if it was like a long music video that made as much sense as Turbo Killer (the original video). Instead, there's a bunch of bad acting to try and sell a story that still didn't make any sense. The effects were pretty cool and I'm all for naked women but I did find a kind of misogynistic vibe to it which was kind of a bummer. And really I think my main problem is that there isn't enough music. It never cuts loose like Turbo killer does. I did like the weird laser gun where the lasers stick around and the miniatures of the ships are pretty cool. Just wish it either succeeded on a story level or didn't worry about narrative and delivered more of a visceral music video experience.
