Elvira Stars In New Ryan Adams Video
. Adams is of that same ilk and generation, and has crafted an excellent, solid, exactly-what-you-want-from-Ryan Adams album that will be released in September. And so the video to go with it is meant to push the buttons of a specific kind of person. Director Michael Reich uses a VHS tape effect on the footage at times, so give it that same effect that Gen X would find familiar from host duties on ThrillerVideos. She was a movie star in her own B-movie right, but she also played hostess to some of the great, tame creep show films - including an '80s B-movie take on Oscar Wilde's excellent work, The Picture of Dorian Gray. It's a remarkable parallel because Adams and Elvira both look perfectly preserved in the video. And Wilde very aptly captures the essence of Adams, and why such a video would appeal to him, in this particular quote from Dorian Gray: "Humanity takes itself too seriously. It is the world's original sin. If the cave-man had known how to laugh, History would have been different." Check out the video here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
