Ganja & Hess
Directed by Bill Gunn • Horror • 1973 • US • English
Starring Duane Jones, Marlene Clark, Bill Gunn
Flirting with the conventions of blaxploitation and horror, Bill Gunn’s revolutionary independent film is a highly stylized and utterly original treatise on sex, religion, and African American identity. Duane Jones stars as anthropologist Hess Green, who is stabbed with an ancient ceremonial dagger, bestowing upon him the blessing of immortality...and the curse of an unquenchable thirst for blood.
