The Stonewall riots get the Blaxploitation treatment in STONEWALL: RIOT ON CHRISTOPHER STREET

There has been plenty to say about Roland Emmerich's recent film STONEWALL -- mostly negative, from its lack of historical accuracy to its whitewashing to its less-than-teriffic box office.  The makers of the upcoming film STONEWALL: RIOT ON CHRISTOPHER STREET don't really care about historical accuracy either, but in this case, it's intentional.

S:ROCS, directed by Richard Griffin (DISCO EXORCIST, THE SINS OF DRACULA) reimagines the 1969 riots as a '70s exploitation film involving the Black Panthers, and the trailer looks like a hell of a lot of fun, even though some may consider the use of an important historical event blasphemous.  I'd say it looks like it serves as a genre-loving response to the previous cinematic incarnations of the event.

Check out the trailer below, and watch for the film soon.
