Inertia Creeps

Videography Of Inertia Creeps

Promo Video(s) Details:

Director: Walter Stern
Cinematographer: Simon Chaudoir

Filming Location: Bow Studios, London, UK
Date of Filming: 26th - 27th August 1998
Video Length: 05:59


Additional Notes:

Some internet websites such as the IMDB list the Hollywood actress Mira Sorvino as being the "dark-haired femme fatale" in the Inertia Creeps video. This appears to be a mistake as the actress who appears in the video bears no resemblance to Mira Sorvino.

This would be the first and only video directed by The Wiz for Massive Attack.

On some press materials at the time of the videos release, stated that the full name of the video was Inertia Creeps (Nighttime Version). This extra appendage (which might suggest that an alternative version of the video exists) was dropped by the time the video was released on Eleven Promos.
