Kramers Theory Applied

2. is, on some level and in some way, ironic


This music video has a scene in a shower where someone is stabbed and killed, it is pretty a much shot for shot copy of the famous scene in Alfred Hitchcocks 'Pyscho'. This means that the band have taken a famous scene and have taken it out of context as it is now in a music video, rather than a black and white film. It is ironic as DPU expect the audience to understand that this is a copy and will perhaps be humourous to watch. It is also interesting as the quite upbeat and happy song playing behind the scene is very different and changes the feel of the scene compared to th near silence and intensity of the orignal in the film.
