Fritz Michel Unveils Spooktacular Halloween Premiere: "On the Rocks" - A Hauntingly Quirky Buddy Horror Music Video Starring Iconic Characters in a Surreal Adventure

Release Date: October 31, 2023

Prepare for a Halloween treat unlike any other as Fritz Michel, the mastermind behind an array of musical wonders, unleashes an extraordinary and spooky music video experience, "On the Rocks." In this macabre yet playful production, director Gavin Price merges elements of buddy comedy and B-movie horror, using live action toys to create a one-of-a-kind visual spectacle.

"On the Rocks" introduces a bizarre escapade featuring the legendary figures of Van Helsing from Dracula and The Phantom of the Opera. The Phantom, grappling with life after the closure of his long-running Broadway show, and Van Helsing, entangled with and embodied as Fritz himself, ponder a haunting painting portraying a shipwreck.

Under the direction of Gavin Price, the music video crafts a peculiar and enthralling journey of old Hollywood coming to terms with a changing landscape. What begins as a seemingly innocent boat ride spirals into a nightmarish ordeal, as our characters confront two sea creatures—among them, a haunting seal and an enigmatic Hebridean Mer-man, who happens to be the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Each encounter poses a threat mirroring the ominous fate that looms over Van Helsing.

Inspired by an evocative Wyeth painting, the film delves into the surreal, blending reality with the extraordinary. The striking visuals and captivating storyline explore a world where toy characters navigate an eerie and unpredictable landscape, perfectly tailored for Halloween and paralleling the recent release of the film Barbie.

Fritz Michel's music video presents a unique parallel to the themes of individuality and societal transformation seen in the recent Barbie movie. Much like Barbie's quest for autonomy and self-realization, "On the Rocks" explores characters navigating an unpredictable world, reflecting the diverse nature of personal identity.

The music video "On the Rocks" is set to premiere during the Halloween 2023 season, delivering a spine-tingling, atmospheric journey that perfectly complements the Halloween spirit.
