Adult Decampment

               
DECAMPMENT from ADULT. on Vimeo

Adult came to our town screening their film Decampment presented with a live soundtrack.  Whilst waiting inline we had some local art students moaning about the 12 bucks it cost to get in and describe it as a “mid western horror”. I thought that was pretty hilarious, but i now see it’s how it was described on their website. It was filmed entirely in Detroit and i guess we’re desensitized so it didn’t freak us out.

It’s a silent movie and the asthete continues with the themes seen in Nicola Kuperas’ photography and band cover/label art. Lots of shoes, legs and faceless or below the neckline shots. Wasn’t quite sure what to make of the movie, the soundtrack was pretty good though. It’s being released as a limited 3×7” set with stills from the movie. Acting was pretty bad but i suppose thats much of the point, it seems like it would have been fun to make. It was very kitschy and we rather appreciated the live soundtrack.
