The Weeknd Continues ‘After Hours’ Series in Twisted Video for “Too Late”

The Weeknd has been generous to fans this year, between a new album, several singles and music videos, and numerous collaborations. Today, he returns his attention to his After Hours series with the sixth video so far. “Too Late” gets a darkly twisted visual – which, to be fair, is the only direction it could go after what happened in the “In Your Eyes” music video.

The second song on After Hours, “Too Late” is slow and moody, but also a bit lavish. Extra synths, shouts of “hey,” and a stronger beat fill out the track. The Weeknd shows off his signature falsetto vocals, with plenty of reverb to keep things hazy. He ominously observes, “It’s way too late to save our souls.” In the case of the new video, that line couldn’t be truer.

By the end of the “In Your Eyes” video, The Weeknd was headless and little more than a prop for others’ enjoyment. At the start of the “Too Late” video, his discarded head is nearly run over by a pair of image-obsessed women who have just had plastic surgery. Liking his facial features, they take The Weeknd’s head for some fun time in the pool, but soon decide they want a body to go with it. They find a chiseled stripper, and the video moves into gory slasher film territory, complete with Frankenstein-like reconstruction and further necromancy.
