Black Dynamite
He's super bad, he's outta sight. He's...
Directed by Scott Sanders
Produced by Six Point Harness, Destination Films
A gleefully absurdist spoof of 1970s blaxploitation cinema that mines comedy from exaggerated genre tropes, earnest dialogue, and affectionate parody.
This is the story of 1970s African-American action legend Black Dynamite. The Man killed his brother, pumped heroin into local orphanages, and flooded the ghetto with adulterated malt liquor. Black Dynamite was the one hero willing to fight The Man all the way from the blood-soaked city streets to the hallowed halls of the Honky House.
