FUSE TV - David Bowie Releases Stunning, Scary 10-Minute 'Blackstar' Video

David Bowie has always been and always will be a performer, through and through. He's never sat still, never boxed himself in as a rock artist or a soul-leaning singer or a weird-movie actor. He does it all, and he's done it all again in the 10-minute short film for "Blackstar," the title track off his 25th studio album, due Jan. 8.

A girl with a catlike tail, a bejeweled skeleton astronaut, herky-jerky dancers, Bowie's bandaged face with terrifying black dots for eyes: The imagery is boundlessly nightmarish and inventive.
