20 Years in the Crypt: Embedded on Tourw/ Dead Moon Film Screening
Sunday, February 16
Doors: 7pm // Show: 7:45pm
In 2001 filmmakers Jason Axel Summers and Kate Fix teamed up with legendary Portland rock band Dead Moon to film the cult favorite documentary Unknown Passage – The Dead Moon Story. The filmmakers were welcomed into the world of the band as if members of their family. They soon found that unlike many artists, with Dead Moon there was no curtain to pull back and peer behind: they always were and are that face they presented as artists to the world. Their earnestness was undeniable, and their electrifying performances and connection with audiences over nineteen years made them rock and roll legends. Fix & Summers shot 180 hours of film & video, all but what was used for the original Unknown Passage documentary remaining “in the can” (or CRYPT!) ….until now!
This new film revisits the performances that Jason & Kate captured on tour with Dead Moon, most of it never presented to the world. Shot to show the music as never seen before, raw and intimate, with the band at the peak of their powers, the viewer will come away once again converted to the fold. We also see fun and interesting footage of a less formal nature, just hanging out and traveling with the band. This film is meant to be a window back in time for fans of Dead Moon, new and old, capturing lightning in a bottle.
The Dead Moon family has a special bond with Chapel Hill, NC and Local 506 specifically. Several of the songs presented are performances at the storied downtown Chapel Thrill club.
This will be the film’s 4th screening in the world, and it will be an East Coast Premiere!
The color and sound was professionally upgraded from the original source tapes.
RT: 1 hour, 56 minutes. BRING A CAMPING CHAIR FOR YOUR R&R ASS!
