Dead Moon “20 Years In The Crypt”

“ If you never saw the legend that is  Dead Moon here’s your closest chance…If you have, it’s time to relive the experience!”

Here is a director’s statement for the film…

  In 2001 filmmakers Jason Axel Summers and Kate Fix teamed up with legendary Portland rock band Dead Moon to film the 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 is 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. Jason and Kate shot 180 hours of film & video, all but what was used for the 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. 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. 

RT: 1 hour, 56 minutes.

plus a special live solo performance by Blackie (Hard Ons)
