SID From Slipknot And Necro Cosplay As Batman Rogues Gallery For 'Hail The Villains' Music Video
SID from Slipknot and horror rapper Necro have created a new track together, Hail The Villains, from the album Reel Wolf Presents Underworld 2 with Psych Ward, and Mr Hyde.
And in the music video from Toronto-based production company Reel Wolf Productions, Necro and Sid cosplay as Batman villains including Two Face, Mr Freeze, the Riddler, Joker and Scarecrow. Reel Wolf have now returned with the video for "Hail the Villains" featuring Sid Wilson from Slipknot, Necro, and Psych Ward. In the video each of the emcees cosplays as a comic book supervillain as a tribute to the characters that they grew up with.
Director Tom Vujcic tells us "Out of all the videos I've done, not only for The Underworld 2 album, but in general – this one was my biggest passion projects. I've always been a die-hard Batman fan, but I think what draws people to any superhero are the villains. I think villains are just as important as the heroes. And what I love about Batman villains is that they are so timeless, but also very interesting in their persona, motives and overall look. I wanted to only focus on the villains for this video – and what was cool was that the song was being constructed to coincide with the video.
"What also drew me to this concept was that I knew it was ambitious. Some villains would be a lot harder to achieve than others, especially since this is not a Hollywood budget. But I'm very happy with the final cut, and I'm excited to share it with other fans that loved these characters as much as I did.
