2. Linus Pauling Quartet, "C is For Cthulhu" Director and LP4 guitarist Ramon Medina made one of the great contributions to the world of the Cthulhu Mythos. Using an inventive mix of live action and stop-motion animation, he brings the legendary elder god to frightful life. Super-props go to Christian Best and his mad-eyed dreamer routine, not to mention the hard-boiled badassedness of Makana Clemons as an intrepid explorer.

1. Glass the Sky, "Touch" For the second year in a row, director Jerry Ochoa makes this list, although this time using his talents for Glass the Sky instead of his own Two Star Symphony. "Touch" is a chilling and dark recreation of Frankenstein, full of sad beauty and body horror all at the same time. It's the typically dark and elegant work Ochoa is known for, and further proof that he's only on his way up as a filmmaker. Once again, he and his peers make Houston's music-video world first-class.
