Rick Genest was born in August 7, 1985 in Canada. He comes from a working family, and he’s the oldest of 2 brothers. He has always been a particular person with a very strong personality, and got his first tattoo at the age of 16.
Moving out of his house when he was 17, he started to hang out with the punk rock crowd in Montreal, living and surviving in abandoned buildings and housing, he got his street skills honed in while he was growing with a tough and hard to understand crowd of people, who baptized him with his nickname “Zombie Boy”. He respectfully waited until he was 18 years old to get his second tattoo, and he started envisioning what he had inside: an amazing love for zombies and the undead, and he brought it to life using his skin as a canvas and tattoos as paint.
When he was a kid, he had a deep love for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and he said he wanted to live in the sewers like them. Growing up, he found an amazing attraction for zombies. He’s a great fan of George A. Romero’s Living Dead movies, and he decided one day to look like a zombie.
