Music video
and Maxim Reality in the music video
A music video was produced for Pendulum's remix of "Voodoo People", directed by Ron Scalpello. The video was first aired on 2 July 2005 at 3:00 a.m. and was filmed one scene at a time. It is based on a scene from the Spanish movie 'Intacto', a film themed around luck and games of chance. The video was filmed in Romford Market in London, England.
The video features several people racing blindfolded, with their hands bound. It could be compared to the video game Frogger, in which all participants must avoid the obstacles within a city. Though, since they could not see the obstacles, it was more of a 'last man standing' game. Several members of the band were spectators in the video, while the winner of the race was Sharky, a former member of The Prodigy who left shortly after the band formed.
