Turn Off Channel Zero -trailer2
Professor Griff, of legendary rap group Public Enemy,
is at war with mass media and is taking the
fight directly to Viacom. Friend and P.E.
group mate - Flavor Flav is a Viacom ratings
dream boy whose tv shows are the target
of much debate and interest in popular
culture. Turn Off Channel Zero is the best
example of activist filmmaking. The director
calls it a romantic comedy. The aim of the
film is to kick the hell out of the creators of
negative media images. This heavily anticipated
film reaches deep into the United States black
community and high into the front yard (literally)
of one of the most powerful media moguls
in the world - CBS and Viacom Chairman
Sumner Redstone. Professor Griff is running
with the most capable group of activists,
artists, filmmakers and everyday people.
Some things get said!!!
