The video was featured heavily on The Box and saw the campest most brilliant kitsch Halloween take since The Rocky Horror show! However, sales were poor.
This time, Sara Jorge appears as the queen of her own Frankenstein & Addam's Family style dungeon, having total control over all the men that fell into her grasp.
The filming Directed by Max and Dania was achieved with a mixture of super 16mm and hand cranked 35mm. Beautifully lit by Greg Copeland. The hand crank camera was a Williamson Paragon Cinematograph owned and operated by John Adderley http://www.adderley.net. The camera uses 100 year old English Cooke lenses which give a smooth silky look to most of the video. The accompanying picture is a frame grab demonstrating this.
"Nothing special, really. Sounds like typical UK pop. What is interesting that the lyrics for the remixes are rewritten and resang, which I gave some points for. The remixes sound great on the dancefloor, but they all sound very similar." ~ (J.D., 30/10/2005)
"This is a super cool track from the UK I have had this for a while now, and it is still one of my favourites. The Kurtis Mantronix Explosive Mix is the best. Top marks!" ~ (W.A., 14/04/2005)
