Description

(USA, 2007, 100 mins)

Directed By: Robert Spruill
Featuring: Chuck D, Flavor Flav, Beastie Boys, Henry Rollins, Tom Morello

Public Enemy’s 20-year career has had a monumental impact on the music world. Robert Patton-Spruill’s Welcome to the Terrordome chronicles their legacy, their history and what icons of the music world say about their influence.

Two decades later, the most controversial rap group of the 80’s is all grown up…and still touring. Their ability to weave serious messages of activism and societal ills into completely accessible songs revolutionized rap and hip-hop. Artists such as the Beastie Boys, Tom Morello (Audioslave, Rage Against The Machine), Henry Rollins, Talib Kweli and Jonathan Davis of Korn reflect on the group’s power. With live concert footage from near and far—Moscow, Rio, Italy, Spain, the UK and finally Austin—Public Enemy demonstrates they still have the power to get the crowd on their feet with insanely infectious music and relentless beats.

So raise your fist in the air and don’t miss this historic, must-see music documentary.
