"Hand Thing" creeped me out at first, but was kinda silly and had a goofy moment here and there. "I Feel Fantastic" was a bit weird, and the music was random and the person, marionette, animatronics, robot, or android (idk which) was out of syncs with music. The Both videos have characters that dip into the uncanny valley. The uncanny valley is where things have a near natural appearance but deviate somehow just enough to be unsettling or uncanny.

Spoiler for trigger warning: uncanny valley bear:
