bxr 1,183 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 “Shadow Of A Man” shuffled up, and I thought about G.U.Y.: An ARTPOP Film, and what a 4-song self-funded self-directed short film Mayhem visual EP would look like; then I thought Requiem: A Mayhem Film sounded clever, but remembered Requiem is already its own project, so I pivoted the working title to TOTAL: A MAYHEM Film … featuring Prelude (the “ARTPOP”): Blade Of Grass Interlude (the “Venus”): Shadow Of A Man Main Feature (the “G.U.Y.”): Garden Of Eden Credits (the “MANiCURE”): Zombieboy Curious to what any of your A MAYHEM Film four would be … hypothetically musing Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson123 41,211 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Garden of Eden, Perfect Celebrity, Vanish Into You and Killah mini film would be so cool. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alxjcgn 1,739 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 More similar to how the Joanne era music videos were "sequels" of the other or all in one storyline, it would be cool to see a music video starting with the mistress getting back in her car (from the end of the Disease video) and then we would maybe have Perfect Celebrity or something cool for that, and then I could def see Shadow of a Man or VIY as a last choice for a video 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elegidadedios 3,711 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The name doesn't make sense lol but I liked your idea. The songs I think would be very interesting to have visuals for (as long as she goes literal for them) are Garden Of Eden, Killah, Zombieboy and The Beast 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Mayhem sequel progression builds out so well Thank you!!! I can't necessarily think of all the songs or plots haha but could maybe sit with the idea some more. I do think that intro of Perfect Celebrity would be so HAUNTING if it started as we see the Mistress get back into the car and drive away, and idk maybe she looks in the mirror and suddenly she's gaga/stefani again or something. I DO think Shadow of a Man would be a fabulous final video.... idk why but I see people dancing in an alley or parking garage roof with rain and white lights when I listen to that song Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PornoDanceFight 1,266 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) Prelude: Garden of Eden Interlude: ZombieBoy Main Feature: Killah Credits: How Bad Do U Want Me Plot: After “Abracadabra,” Mistress Mayhem kidnaps Ethereal Gaga to her demented brutalist/gothic club, the Garden of Eden. EtherealGa becomes intoxicated (literally and figuratively) by Mistress and her demons. Gaga indulges with a ZombieBoy until the party romance turns bad. EtherealGa turns into a zombie Killah to free herself from Mistress’ control, exorcising the demons from the club leaving only Mayhem and EtherealGa left standing. HBDUM could be the credits OR be its own video showing Mayhem and EtherealGa reconciling. Almost like an alternate version of the tour narrative.

The songs I think would be very interesting to have visuals for (as long as she goes literal for them) are Garden Of Eden, Killah, Zombieboy and The Beast At some point early in the idea I was like “Wait, wouldn’t it just be: [Main Feature video]: A MAYHEM Film” … ? But I didn’t mind how TOTAL and MAYHEM in the title had an odd symmetry, and then i just justified the placeholder by remembering that “mayhem” means deprivation of a body part, so to be TOTAL is to be whole and complete, which would be the definitive end of one’s “mayhem” because they are total and so nothing is deprived — but/and yes, the name doesn’t make sense on direct correlation Solid slate, I see your vision; would The Beast end the narrative, or would you shift into the next era with The Beast as a segue?

huttont 5,867 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I really wanted a Halloween-themed music video film before The Dead Dance was released. I thought Killah > Zombieboy > The Dead Dance with The Beast or SOAM for credits would have been really fun. Now all I want is Killah and Vanish Into You 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
