Most of you probably haven’t seen Bill Gunn’s 1973 blaxploitation
vampire flick Ganga & Hess, and that’s a damn shame.
It’s a cool, unique meditation on race, class, identity, religion, and
addiction, as well as being a strange, creepy horror joint. But don’t worry if
you’re unfamiliar, because Spike Lee has seen it, and as if to prove that any
film, no matter how obscure, can be remade, his Da Sweet Blood of
Jesus does just that. It hits theaters and VOD early next year, and
now you can check out this new trailer, which now has me solidly on board.
