Turns out if you take ‘Fight For Your Right (To Party)’ out of the film clip to said song, the Beastie Boys just become a bunch of relentless jerks — invading a home, stealing drinks, harassing women, bullying nerds, glassing strangers, and throwing pies at everyone else.

The guy behind the musicless clips of ‘Dancing In The Street’ and the even more disturbing ‘Chandelier’ has given the same treatment to The Beastie Boys’ hit, resulting in something you might see at an arthouse film festival — funny, sure, but occasionally obnoxious and deeply unsettling too.
