Unearthed and Caught on film…new videos

Amazing film maker and good friend Nate Gulick recently  uncovered a color version of the classic “Swamp Thing” video. This one was shot guerrilla style, in a single day (not counting hair and make up),  at our old stomping grounds Tucasa Studios (XO Mario) on the LES.

This one is from the El Lenador (our favorite Mexican food serving German Beer Hall) in St. Louis. This one doesn’t sound so great but we give it high marks for cinematography and casting.

Another rough one from the crowd at LIVfest in Wichita, KS.  Big place!
