Video Mix by Glenn Rivera
Produced by Ken Emmons
"Fear" by Easy Going (1979) Produced by Giancarlo Meo
"Torso" (1973) - Directed by Sergio Martino
“Fear” was an Italian production with an innovative feel for dance floors during its release. The robotic feel along with the vocoder generated lead vocals create an electro feel and hypnotic transition. I have taken the LP version and a 1973 horror film, “Torso” – directed by Sergio Martino and created a new meaning to the song. The film “Torso” was a Carlo Ponti production and was added to the slasher film list of the 70’s. More eroticism was added to utilize the cast including Suzy Kendall (“To Sir, With Love”) and many other Italian beauties (men and women) in this psychosexual thriller. It also contains one of the most squeamish moments of suspense at the end of the film which I used a climax for the video.
Hey Glenn, very cool.. great job!!!.. :D

Glenn, you gave the music and the lyrics of "Fear" a new (and absolutely fascinating!) visual context Giancarlo Meo would have been proud of! I think that if the Italians produced video-clips of that imaginative quality in the 70's and the 80's, their music would have been more popular and much better known on this side of the Atlantic. F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-Q-U-E!
