I remember seeing this video on MTV a couple years back (not really listening to Unkle or Radiohead back then), and being really really really disturbed by it. I had heard the song since then, but never really connected it to this video. I still find it pretty creepy.
this is an awesome video, but is my mind playing tricks on me when I think I saw a more vanilla version of this video with Thom Yorke as the main guy? I probably could be conflating it with the "Karma Police" video, but then again, Thom was inside the car in that one. weird.
mr.marx, your mind may indeed be playing tricks on you... AFAIK this is the only video available for that song, and if there was an alternate or edited version, then Thom wasn't in it. (If there had been, I would know. Trust me.)
And I love the video, for the visual shock of the last image. Gorgeous.
