Did you ever feel like the universe is reaching directly into your brain for inspiration on what crazy shit it should do next? That’s how I feel watching this clip, which takes like five of my favorite things in the world — Krautrock inspired electronic grooves, zombies, G.I. Joe, John Carpenter and stop-motion animation — and mashes them together in the most delicious way possible. The band is French dance/groove/weirdo outfit Zombie Zombie (not to be confused with the local, Warren Beddell-fronted act, but still coolest name ever! That’s them pictured above), the video is a stop-motion recreation of the John Carpenter classic The Thing created with G.I. Joe figures. It’s incredible, and you can find it after the jump.
