For Your Love by Austin punk band the Skunks was a video directed by my old boss at the record store Inner Sanctum. While this bizarro punk video looked as if it was influenced by the movie Caligula, he said he was trying to go for a big production like the early videos on MTV. The stairway scene was shot at night on Mount Bonnell outside of Austin, and the muscle men were recruited from a local gym. The beautiful ingenue cast as the priestess was a clerk from a local store.
