great movie, I think I was 12 or 13 when I saw it first. There's more to it than just good music, but you'll have to find that out for yourself if you've never seen it.
This is an exteneded version isn't it? I saw this movie the other night and was actually surprised how much I liked it given the fact that DePalma movies can be largely hit or miss. I liked this sequence, because it became really unclear exactly what was going on for a moment. Just like the end (small spoiler alert I guess) when the main guy is having his small moment of realization.
Anybody notice that girl walking on Holly Johnson's back in 1:00 looks like Wednesday Addams grown up? I guess the end of the TV show hit them harder than anticipated.
Anybody notice that girl walking on Holly Johnson's back in 1:02 looks like Wednesday Addams grown up? I guess the end of the TV show hit them harder than anticipated.
The killer is played by Gregg Henry another small time actor whose most recent role was in the tv series Hung. Not to mention that Rob Paulsen the guy who voiced Wakko in Animaniacs is the guy who asks the director: "Where's the cum shot?"
This video was considered too sexually explicit for MTV and their other version where a fat guy pee's on the singer. So they only showed the version in concert with laserbeams.
I love that in the DePalma movie this is supposed to be a porno! It's like the most expensive porno ever made next to CALIGULA, with lavish production designs and dozens of extras!
@SweetenThekitty96 You might be right on all counts! This is actually a scene from the 1984 Brian DePalma film BODY DOUBLE. The main character in the movie (short guy with glasses in this "video") is an actor who landed the lead role in this video. But I think this is also actually treated as the "second" music video version of this song, too, but not the original video.
@quietforests I hope you realize most of the women in this video are actually men. Melanie Griffith and Deborah Shelton are the only ones you can be sure of.
@SuperHueyDoo This video is taken from a movie called Body Double made in the 80s which was a remake of Hitchcocks Rear Window and co-starred Melanie Griffith a long time before she made it big (or biggish) - 'the creepy dude with the hat' is one of the characters in the movie - the scene was pretty raunchy/racy for those days though it pales in comparison to your average nightclub/movie scene these days ......

I was 14 when I finally got to watch Body Double on VHS back in '89 and that woman was really hot...Jesus. The Movie itself is a testament to the 80's pop culture, and who can forget the song at the end of the movie...RELAX!
First of all, there is no denying that the song is spectacular! As far as the film is concerned, I loved it when I saw it in the mid '80s. I wonder if it may be more popular now... It retains an 84% approval rating on rottentomatoes, if you care to listen to the "critics." :) I enjoy the song and the film.
I saw Body Double for the first time a couple of months ago.Women in the 80's had something...special,which I cannnot describe,way better than today's.
This was one of the great New Wave tunes that turned my whole attitude around about 80s music. "Relax" still has power and verve like it always has. Fucking love it. The movie "Body Double" was pretty cool too. Christ, I miss the 1980s.
gotta love youtube. i remember watching this whole movies as a kid on hbo.. and when this part came on .i was like .hey i know that song.., its really a good movie and Melanie look hot in it..
I like this movie. I don't think it's among DePalma's best, but still a watchable flick. I think the 2 best performances are by Melanie Griffith and Guy Boyd (who played the investigating cop). But you can't deny the appeal of DePalma's style of making movies during this period! BLOW OUT is the best of this period IMHO.
I think he looks a helluva lot like Bill Maher as well. LOL That actor is actually named Craig Wasson (he could be Bill Maher's Body Double). (rimshot)
One year later, having posted my accolade of this film, (and I particularly enjoy the video!,) this film has received an 84+% rating on the tomato meter. Well done to the contributor!
Put me back into a time capsual so I can go and "dance" to the great music we had in the eighties!!!! Not to mention go to see a great "local Band" instead of hearing someone singing to a "Karaoke Machine"
One of the many classic songs that came from my generation. Body Double might have been the most creative and original thriller of all time. And, well, errrr, ahhh, ummmm, Deborah Shelton was the hottest thing on two feet. What a timeless beauty.
@ohmixmaster Creative? No, hardly. The entire story line was lifted from Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window". There was nothing creative about it in this sense. Enjoyable and fun? Yes.
