(WATCH) Jersey Rock Video of the Week: Jeff Crespi “Zombie Rocks”
Shot at The Saint in Asbury Park!
Ever since George Romero first turned people on to the horrors of the living dead back in 1968, the zombie genre has had a grip on pop culture. Through film, print, television, video games, and even anime, “walkers,” as they are sometimes called, are ever-present on the modern entertainment landscape.
The abundance of media featuring re-animated corpse antagonists makes it hard to produce a work about zombies that comes across as truly original but Jeff Crespi found a way. The well known local Rock photographer had a vision for a new type of zombie film and teamed with D.I.Why Films to make it a reality. “Zombie Rocks” is an apocalyptic love story featuring a seriously imaginative catalyst for an undead apocalypse: a camera. Perhaps it is not just the tool, but rather the photography skills of the wielder, Jeff Crespi, that allows him to become the harbinger or armageddon. Everything he photographs becomes a zombie. It’s an interesting concept that could arguably be adapted into a larger work.
