Newly-launched label Deaf Crocodile has released a promotional video highlighting its progress on a brand new 4K restoration of John Carpenter's cult thriller Assault on Precinct 13 (1976). At the moment, there isn't a preliminary street date for an upcoming Blu-ray release of the restoration.

Synopsis: When the LAPD kills several members of the South Central gang Street Thunder, the remaining members avenge themselves by way of a bloody war waged against cops and citizens alike. Caught in the crossfire is Lt. Ethan Bishop (Austin Stoker), who's managing a skeleton crew at the local and soon-to-be-closed police precinct. As the gang members close in, Bishop forms an unlikely alliance with a group of prisoners in order to defend the station and the lives of everyone in it.
