Premise: Black Dynamite: a gun-toting, nunchuck-wielding, ladies man and soul brother. When "The Man" murders his brother, pumps heroin into local orphanages, and floods the ghetto with adulterated malt liquor, Black Dynamite is the one hero willing to fight all the way from the blood-soaked city streets to the hallowed halls of the Honky House.
Finally, I've been wanting to see this for such a long time
Wow, what a lot of fun. This was what grind house really shot for but necessarily didn't achieve. Kudos to the person who made the soundtrack. You'll see plenty of character actors and 'what's his faces'. The best one of these cameos is Arsenio Hall. Michael Jai White truly makes this role his own at the same time giving tribute to men like Fred Williamson and Richard Roundtree. Its really hilarious and the finale is outrageous.
Has anyone seen this? I think i've watched it a dozen times. Its insanely quotable and if you're even a mild fan of blaxploitation movies you'll dig this. The send up of dolemite (BULL HORN!) is fucking great. I love this movie so much.
