Watch The Black Dahlia Murder’s Creepy, Animated “Threat Level No. 3” Video

One of the great benefits of animation: budget becomes less of an issue. It would have cost squillions of dollars for The Black Dahlia Murder and filmmaker Adam Avilla to make this violent, mind-bending, disturbing-yet-funny video for “Threat Level No. 3,” which plays like a mini-episode of Metalocalypse that was created by someone tripping balls. BDM have made some great videos before, this has to be one of their best, if not their actual best.

Check out “Threat Level No. 3” below. It comes from BDM’s latest ass-kicker, Abysmal, which is out now on Metal Blade. The band kicks off a tour with Fallujah and Disentomb in April, during which they’ll play their album Unhallowed in its entirety. Get dates here.
