WATCH IT: Katy Perry "E.T." (Floria Sigismondi, dir.)

Katy Perry  stars in this inter-galactic ode to love, sex, mortality, decay, man, machine, nature, civilization and most of all: Looking like an outlandish spaceage love child of David Bowie and Marilyn Manson. Director Floria Sigismondi — who's worked with both Bowie and Manson — hits on a broad swath of sci-fi references, ranging from 2001 to Wall-E, ending on a note that seems taken from an timeless fable.

WATCH IT: B.O.B. "Dr Aden" (Isaac Klotz, dir.)

Dr Aden finds herself in the mist of a vast conspiracy when she realizes that the government and a pharmaceutical company has knowingly distributed blood related medication that had been infected with AIDS. Unfortunately, it's a true story. B.O.B. serves as the narrator in the b&w clip while the character of Dr Aden finds herself confronted by forces that are more in line with Men In Black than Michael Clayton to make sure she keeps quiet.
