A fun clip following the film concept.

A fun music video for the main theme song from "Weird Science", a master classic of the 1980's, and the title track is performed by Oingo Boingo. Lead singer Danny Elfman, now an award winning film composer, is also the lead in the clip where he plays a crazy scientist who like the kids in the movie uses of various objects and strange machinery to create their ideal woman. The band members play his assistants in this weird experiment on a bizarre laboratory. Elfman's charisma and expressions, along with the rhythmic sound of the group - with some minor clips from Hughes movie - makes of this an enjoyable experience though not much memorable as the amusing video of "Stay". High note here due to the song mostly, very catchy despite the version played here is a short version. 8/10
