the eel

[HAIILIKEMOO]

WHAT THE HOLY FUCK IS THIS

[lucas6377]

the is the only song i ever heard the freaks me out when i listen to it haha

[theblackpixieJTHM]

This is the first video I ever added to my favourites... and now I find it again related to Graphic Novel Trailers...

[EnigmaticUnseen]

Gene Simmons just got upstaged by an eel.

[MissIcia]

This is freaking me out.

[tkivoband]

Dominic Hailstone is the man! Great work!

[TheChewimurphy]

HELL YESS !!!!!! iv been tryin to find this for soooo long yrs already

[PentagonBlack]

on the one hand, i wish the video was in better quality because it's kinda hard to tell what's going on at times.

on the other hand, not being able to clearly make out what's happening is probably for the best just based on what i CAN see

[dltanner99]

Cryptozoology novel  see video book trailer

[LeolaTaylor]

That looks like something out of Resident Evil... or Lovecraft.

[Insanity585]

That is awesome!!

[pntm]

208 people shit themselves, 9 of them didn't enjoy it.

[TheLizardraziL]

I didn't even watch the end of this it was so boring .

[tripfaggable]

@TheLizardraziL The end is the best part. The leadup to it is essential. If you cant sit for two minutes watching a beautifully executed video, I pity you.

[psychoclank314]

i watched this last night while i was looking up music videos on Gorillaz, and came across this, lets just say i had some crazy dreams last night lol the vid is awsome and is idk what but i love it!!!

[michaelspeers001]

sounds like a justin broadrick track

[jeremyniaboc]

this vid is awesome. watching it since 2007 and its always amazing

[punksnskaters182]

I love this video!!!

[TheRainbowDonkey01]

I always think of the mighty boosh song when i see an eel

[budspotz]

THATS A BIG ASS EEL!!! LOL

[N10G5]

oh cool, a nine inch nails music video

[SilentPhil2]

Somebody get me the Ghostbusters.

[Dissectionalx0]

Dominic Hailstone, always doing something nice.

[blizrfiz]

[GabeTheCrusher]

BRAVO, BEAUTIFUL

[TamaraHarrisonVideos]

OMFG.

[93Miro]

Fthang! This is amazing!

[znolive]

Just got woken up to your Art by the M'Organ.....

Sublime mate!

[presidentcletus]

John Carpenters 'The Thing', or 'The Flowers of Flesh & Blood'? A bit of both, methinks...

[cocobetterthanleno]

0:00 - 4:00 "Well this is boring, I don't see how these comments fit this video at all. It's not even..."

4:01 "AHHH WHAT'S HAPPENING?!?"

[lychicambess]

@cocobetterthanleno  LOL same here! :D

[Teirinar]

Looks like a clip from John Carpenter's "The Thing".  Very well done.

[mutantres]

hypnotizing and disturbing. reminds me R.H. Giger art.

[TheHauntedFarm]

@mutantres

*H.R.Giger.

[mutantres]

@TheHauntedFarm no... his cousin ;p

[luke112211]

WTF.

[oskerapple3]

did that eel just explode? lol

[xkarciolekx]

BOJE SIE :( źli ludzie dlaczego mnie tak straszycie :((

[dreadfilms]

Amazing work.

[kdenn817]

That was really awesome.

[the69eyeslostgirl]

We were shown this during a lecture in our art & design course. Very well done piece with great audio.

[limbdarkening]

Can someone tell me who made this film and where I can read about how they made it?  I love this video.

[Inkult3]

Dominic Hailstone it was in 2004 if I remember well. But anyway it's Hailstone. Dunno were you can learn how they made it.

[mashnbangers22]

Just type his name his name into google: Dominic Hailstone, and you'll find info on him.

[psycodelits]

the same director of isis holy tears video

Dominic Hailstone

[jacobandjakob1]

is this a movie

[limbdarkening]

@jacobandjakob1 it would be wicked if it was, but I think it is just a short.

[SayidShazeen]

I believe to have read that this movie is made without any use of computer animation, only editing.

[limbdarkening]

@SayidShazeen no, the ending has to be computer or something, I don't know how else they would have done that. Reminds me a lot of The Thing.

[BloodQueue]

When the eggs ruptured and the blood shot through the water like crimson string I had such a profound feeling of release...

That really was wicked...

[ErichoTTA]

Great piece of art.

[rebelwithacause1931]

Most incredible. I'm feeling very entertained...in 5 minutes!

[NegativeWhisper]

This is quite fascinating!

[yellowkyo]

i member wen i saw this in ifc or sundance i forgot witch one but it was sweeeeee

[ihaveanenzoandphat]

caleb is gay

[Pyrotechnican]

it kinda remembers me of ,,the thing"

[nadskofhqwak]

it reminds you of the thing fucktard

[hellraiser253]

it reminds him of the thing assgoat

[PornoTwo]

Nice video and music.

[B4Ctom1]

This reminds me of John Carpenter's 1982 movie: The Thing. If it were remade today with those kinds of effects it would give a whole new generation of movie fans the heebiejeebies.

[IAlreadyDid]

the ending needed to be longer

[leeroyhighcontrast]

No, not one bit! Not in my opinion! The baloon-abstraction thingy was sort of the brim... I'm glad it didn't take that too far.

Pertinent comment I found from a guy called Liam Dunlop: This video is a hell of an achievement. Should make a lot of people open their minds to a healthy dose of transgression in their own work.

Totally!

[IggyHazard]

Did H. P. Lovecraft direct this video? XD

[dumoulin11]

very extremely hugely wicked

[Soulex555]

so...is there a dvd with dominic's material that can be purchased. this is amazing. i can honestly say, i've watched this since it was shown to me a few years back...never gets old

[alejandra96080]

I can't believe it wasn't done with computer animation. It cannot be stop motion. How was this flick done?

[edwardlover88]

music was good, but wtfin hell was that?!!

[WhiteDragon103]

lol 4:58 its ejaculating

[bodyrock666]

You should make a myspace Rob, instead of giving cryptic google replies.

[robzig]

MySpace????? NEVER....aha ha hah ha

[3kidna]

[robzig]

[Pyrotechnican]

[IMAGESandMUSIC]

[waddingo]

[lorenzo5671]

I need to know how this was done without computer animation. Does anyone know?

[MonsterHouseNYC]

Fantastic Job!

The Eel was made on a budget of £300 in a total of six months. No computer graphics were utilised during the production.

crew * director Dominic Hailstone

[swum]

That was awesome.

[EGI313]

Very nice.

[DrainyuBohay]

[steezy236]

[Razortine]

Who exactly does this song anyway?

[Djeezes]

Tool, eat your heart out!

[hellobanana]

This short is so awesome. It still freaks me out when I watch it, and I've seen dozens of times! Wonderful!

[Goshthrone]

woow!!!i've been searching for this for 3 months it's just greaaaaaaaat the music,the video n all..it's kinda like the Aphex twin rubber johnny video

[Jaylectricity]

The first time I saw this was on the SunDance Channel. I had just gotten high and I was captivated, practically dancing around my living room in a creepy way.

[sanjak]

is this taken from the movie?

[dhurley05]

The Japanese one?

[xtjax]

nope

[xtjax]

that graph at the start measures heart beat/pulse, the rapidlines (the blockish bits) would indicate an extremely bad stroke, heart attack or distress (in this case).

[meltdowncity]

Who does this song, I so want there cd. I WANT IT AND I WILL TREASURE IT. So fucking awesome.

[Agentrenfield]

robert clunne

[meltdowncity]

Thank you so much.

[dhurley05]

where can you find him?

[robzig]

I'm right here

[dhurley05]

Did you make the music on your own? I like how you made the drum beat alone in the beginning.

[dufse]

NO S**T!ARE U 4REAL?Wanna know everything!Website,bios,produc­tions,where u live!!1st time I see the whole version,I got scraps from a TV channel in Italy wich disappeared pretty soon and though completely haunted didn´t have the possibility to understand..what happened and who!!Please canu give some info?

[robzig]

If anyone wants a copy of the song and the album it is off just contact me. I have been in the wildness for the last 2 years but have now returned to complete the 3rd album for the trilogy.

[paul1122]

Neat, looks like it was inspired by John Carpenter's The Thing :)

[axeeugene78]

the best video on youtube in years!

[oceanic86]

This guy needs to do a Silent Hill movie.

[eatyourpuppy]

eels are cool

[KyWyrm]

I had one of these as a pet once... they are very hard to take care of.

[KyWyrm]

yay emo-ness! (^_^)

[Doomed2Hell]

hows that emo, you fag?

[inflxshn]

Reminds me of the IDM vidoes, like the stuff Autechre would do.

[ead1529]

This would have been a much better video if they had done an 8 minute version of it, and set it to the song "Pro-Radii" by Autechre.

[edwardhofman]

This makes me feel ill, good though!

[Prisoner303]

sublime...

[jrmmrs]

Man that was right on! Loved it! Thank you!

[Turmi0n]

Fucking SICK. THIS is a music video.

[duneracer1]

Intense... I saw this last night late on an independant film channel then searched YouTube for it because I had to share this one with friends

[xtjax]

chris cunninghams £300 masterpiece :) love it

[MitchMontoya]

Bien oppressant comme il faut..

[TickleMeCthulhu]

Amazing. Absolutely chilling. Great work! Had to do a bit of searching to find out who made this film because the titles are so pixelated on YouTube, but I'll be keeping my eye out for this director.

[eyeball4ek]

Absolutely amazing.  Loved it.

[xxxstitchxxx]

Ahh.. the eel, the first time I saw this was while being sat at Alex Chandons house feeling drunk... Dom, you rocked this.
