Rize (2005)

Have any of you seen it? It's a documentary about that "crunking" dance craze that was popular among African-Americans in South Central Los Angeles. I'm watching it for free on IMBD tv.

They look like they're having seizures but it's a really interesting film. It was surprised to find out it was directed by white fashion photographer David LaChappele, I misread it as Dave Chappelle at first.

And of course Madonna had to steal it and use in her HUNG UP video a year later. Some of the scenes in her video look like it was lifted out of that film.

I see the word [italic] crunking [/italic] and remember the cringeworthy attempt Hayden Pannetierre makes in Bring It On: All Or Nothing 😄

I believe the female dancer on the cover was in the Hung Up video, OP.
