SLAYER: “Repentless” Behind The Scenes Video Released Via RED Digital Cinema

Slayer

SLAYER recently unleashed the band’s 12th album, “Repentless”, on September 11th via Nuclear Blast Records. To celebrate its release, the band created a gore-soaked music video for its title track—and RED Digital Cinema was there to capture the entire shooting experience.

Watch RED’s behind the scenes clip of SLAYER’s “Repentless” here:

RED commented on the music video, “Featuring a star-studded cast of classic and contemporary horror icons, the music video was designed with cinema-quality production value and special effects in mind. The video’s director, BJ McDonnell, used SCARLET DRAGONs to help capture his vision of a visually stunning music video with a story to tell.”

“Repentless,” the first music video for the album, has now amassed more views in less than two weeks than any of the band’s previous music videos during the same time frame – more than four-million views at social media. The video was directed by BJ McDonnell (“Hatchet III”), filmed at the Sybil Brand women’s prison in East Los Angeles, and features copious amounts of blood, grizzly murders, and cameo appearances by some of Hollywood’s most recognized anti-heroes, including Danny Trejo (“From Dusk Till Dawn”) and Tony Moran (“Halloween”).

On this previously unreleased video clip, SLAYER’s Tom Araya and Kerry King talk discuss the “Repentless” track:

The album scored a Top 10 debut in 25 countries, Top 5 in 14 countries, and made career-highest debuts in the United States, the UK, Germany, The Netherlands and New Zealand.
