Kent Swanson

Kent Swanson is an incredibly zealous photographer who can be found on the first day on the second floor restaurant in the Paradise Plaza after Otis contacts Frank about seeing a guy who looked like a photographer.

After Frank meets him, he shows Frank how to properly photograph and commissions Frank to capture excellent photographs. If Frank meets his requirements on the following day, he will return the next day with a survivor. Kent will attempt to zombify him with a Queen larvae, but Frank will stomp on it before it can reach him. Kent will lament Frank's ruination of his shot, and will attack Frank in a fit of rage.

In an alternate battle, in which Frank shows up later for the fight, Kent points a gun at his head, telling him he is going to tie him up nice and tight. After stripping Frank of his clothes and weapons, as well as tying him to a chain attached to the ceiling, Frank must fight him. He is considerably harder than his counterpart, as weapons are more difficult to get, as well as the fact that Kent is fast, and has a handgun.

After Frank defeats him, Kent asks him to take a picture of his corpse, saying it will look good on Frank's mantle. Frank disgustedly throws Kent's camera away.

In the Wii edition, Kent is only seen as a zombie and Tad is not in the game at all. Zombie Kent has a red jacket and green shorts that distinguishes him from a crowd, he will laugh wildly in a low tone before launching himself towards Frank with his trademark kick. He also uses his handgun in the fight, but fires slowly and can fire twice. He will also say "Smile!" in a demonic tone as he tosses a grenade at Frank.
