The video for “Back From Beyond” was directed by Doug Cook (www.dougcook.ca) and animated by Nick Johnson and Ryder McLean. Terry Butler (bass) comments: “MASSACRE is very proud of the ‘Back From Beyond’ video. It has a nice campy horror vibe, yet at the same time is cutting edge, and we think it can connect with a variety of audiences. Doug Cook did an amazing job with this one!!!”
