The American Genre Film Archive (AGFA) has provided us with an official domestic trailer for the brand new 4K restoration of John Carpenter's classic film Assault on Precinct 13 (1976), starring Darwin Joston, Laurie Zimmer, Martin West, Austin Stoker, and Tony Burton.
Description: 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.
