A chill fan made video using scenes from the terrible movie Target commercial Career Opportunities (1991).

      Oh cool, I hadn’t seen that before. Lyrically that fits with the scenes in the movie but I think the mood of After Dark works better with the feeling of solitude in working overnights. That could just be bias from seeing that combo first though. To use a movie from the same year I tried S.A.L.Song over the “bouncing” scene in Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead and it matched pretty well.

      Comedy Central used to play Career Opportunities all the time so even if it wasn’t bad to begin with I’d probably still resent it just from overexposure.

        OMG I just tried that and it was awesome. When the manager comes at the end you just need a “record scratching” sound and done.

    I was absolutely obsessed with this song a while back! Picked it up from a Ukrainian drone video. Love it, love Jennifer Connelly, love the video. Thanks!

      When I went looking for a link of it to post I was surprised to see so many “extended/1/4 hour” versions so it seems to have a lot of fans. I was hooked on it for a bit too :)
