The Killers' "Murder Trilogy", Part Three: 'Jenny'

Part three and the finale of the Killers' visioned "Murder Trilogy" - 'Jenny'.

In summary:
In this part, we start at the next morning as Jonny ruminates. We can see he feels guilty about something. Tom calls him asking where Jenny is, he avoids the subject. Jonny sits and thinks on the past, until the night before. We see the beginning of their relationship, which started out sweet enough, and then the first time he hit her. Then it goes to her walking out to meet him, and him grabbing her. Back to that morning he's being taken away by a detective, and it's seen that Tom's probably behind this. What really happened the past evening is shown between clips of the present: Jonny convinced her to get in the car with him, he parks, and after she tries to leave they argue, he snaps, and he chokes her to death in a fit of rage. He decides to dump her body in the lake. Brooke and Adam find out that Jenny's been found dead. The police let Jonny go on account of the lack of evidence, but Adam has his own special retribution for Jonny. All set to (after some dialogue) "Jenny Was a Friend of Mine", from 'Hot Fuss'.

The audio is kinda blah (our boom didn't work so we had to rely on the camera mike) so just bear with us. It's actually a pretty cool story all in all.

(fwi, it's in my nature to point out things. inconsistencies, sometimes the obvious, though usually inadvertently.) why would he attack the guy at the end? now he's going to be tried for murder. he shoulda thought that through. also, i like the guy's ringtone at the beginning. how could I get it?

[galateafilms]

@dentedface well what I was trying to get across is that the police are letting him go, at least for the time being. and that's not the immediate justice Adam wanted, especially when he pretty much knows what happened. Jotnny isn't dead at the end, just beaten...and I doubt he'd bring charges against Adam for fear of evidence against himself being found.

the ringtone is their demo "Where is She". Try Jook's Bootlegs (Killers bootlegs) to find a file.

I LOVE that you guys recreated this. Watched all three. Awesome work, LOVE the Killers. I can only imagine how much sicker it would've been if you had some professional equipment. =)

If only! We had our lovely HD camera, and the boom mike was a bust...ah the life of a broke college student :) thanks for the kind words.

I don't really like your interpretation. In fact it's not what Brandon sings. But nice effort anyway, your videos are worth seeing.
