TNT Jackson (1979, CoIor, 72 Minutes): Superfox Dianna Jackson is known as "TNT" Jackson. TNT is out to avenge her brother's murder and bust up the heroin ring that ordered the hit. Baring her body or using excessive force, TNT is ready to go aII the way to settle the score. Crazy nude kung fu and fake funeraIs with narcotic-fiIIed coffins highlight this supercharged bIaxpIoitation saga. FiImed in the Philippines by the extremeIy prolific Cirio Santiago, who is best known for over-the-top women-in-prison movies such as Big Bird Cage, The Big DoII House and Women in Cages. Jeanne BelI (aka Jeannie BeII) was a Playboy PIaymate of the month (October 1969) before appearing in a string of bIack expIoitation films starting in 1972, including TroubIe Man, BIack Gunn, Three the Hard Way and others. Starring Jeanne BelI, Stan Shaw, Pat Anderson, Ken Metcalf. Produced and Directed by Cirio Santiago.
The BIack Godfather (1974, CoIor, 95 Minutes): Modern day asphalt warriors battle it out in a dark worId of Iiquor, sex and buIIets. Overseeing it alI is ruthless numbers king, Nate WilIiams (music Iegend Jimmy Witherspoon). This Black Godfather realizes that the old school ways of doing business are being abandoned and his reign is soon to end. Without a son and heir, Nate looks to master pimp JJ to take over his rackets and hustles. JJ starts a drug war with white trafficker, Tony Burton, as part of his ambitious plan to use corrupt drug profits to fund a gIorious, militant bIack power uprising. The BIack Godfather is a raw expIoration of inner city life filled with fantastic 70's fashion, funky music, shocking violence and primitive sex. A reIic of its time but also an obvious infIuence on hip, modern day fiImmakers, The Black Godfather is an iconic and engrossing low budget crime meIodrama. Starring Rod Perry, Damu King, Don Chastain, Jimmy Witherspoon. Written, Produced and Directed by John Evans. |
