Cheap Kill Bill parody

Warning: Spoilers
"Black Widow" is a 2014 song by Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora and these 5.5 minutes here are the music video that came with it. The male star (not singing of course) is Tarantino regular Michael Madsen and I guess the makers thought that if they already have him why not bring back Kill Bill for this one. They did. And it did not turn out well as you can see from my title. Madsen is really the only somewhat fun thing here, even if he is not memorable either. The song could have been worse admittedly, but the rap music parts still felt fairly cringeworthy. The costumes and makeup are shamelessly over the top and possibly the worst aspect here. And the dream sequence reference (Baby one more time anybody?) has been done way too much by now really. As a whole, this video is a good example of what is wrong with music videos frequently. Too little individual creativity and instead cheap unappealing copies that really only may mean something positive for anybody who does not know the original. I highly recommend to stay away from this one. Apart from that, the title is complete nonsense as this music video except a randomly rushed in spider scene has nothing to do with black widows or marriage and I wished Madsen would have prevailed in the end.
