This review is from: Black Mama, White Mama/Foxy Brown (DVD)

Item was purchased as a gift for a friend. I remember seeing this movie at the drive-in when it first came out. I was too young to appreciate the "badness" of this film, and others like it. Now that I am an old guy...I love, Love, LOVE these '70s Schlocktaculars! Revolutionaries, Harem girl, prison shower scene...

Let's see if those Merchant Ivory guys can TOP that! Yeah, I didn't think so.

5.0 out of 5 stars SUPER-SASSY AND SUPER-FABULOUS: PAM GRIER DOUBLE FEATURE, August 26, 2010

This review is from: Black Mama, White Mama/Foxy Brown (DVD)

Pam Grier fans will love this "double feature" of two of her best films:
Pam and her co-star Margaret Markov spend most of "Black Mama, White Mama" (from a story by Joseph Viola and Jonathan Demme; 1973) handcuffed together; similar to Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis in "The Defiant Ones." Karen (Markov) wants to help her revolutionary friends. All tough-talking Lee (Pam Grier) wants is to grab a stash of cash and escape on a boat. When Karen's friends help her and Lee escape prison, it's a wild race through the jungle; as they defeat sadistic, lesbian prison guards and even temporarily dress as nuns! They are pursued by Pam's frequent co-star Sid Haig, who is easily distracted by some easily bedded babes. "Black Mama, White Mama" is a perfectly entertaining mix of adventure, action, and comedy.
Revenge is especially sweet when Pam Grier stars as super-sassy, super-sexy "Foxy Brown." And, as the title song says, don't make Foxy mad-- or you'll find out she's "Super-Bad." "Foxy Brown" (1974) reunited Pam with "Coffy" writer-directer Jack Hill. "Foxy Brown" follows a successful formula; very similar to "Coffy." Foxy Brown has a score to settle with the drug-dealers who put a hit out on her boyfriend Michael (Terry Carter). Foxy first unleashes her fury on her no-good, dope-pushing brother Linc (Antonio Fargas), who is also responsible for Michael's murder. Foxy goes undercover as a prostitute and, while helping a prostitute escape, engages in an obligatory lesbian bar brawl. After her cover is blown, Foxy ingeniously turns the tables on the scumbags who torture her at a "ranch." But the unique revenge Foxy takes on central villains Steve and Kathryn (Peter Brown and a delightfully over the top Kathryn Loder) has to be seen to be believed! "Foxy Brown" is super-entertaining, super-fabulous fun!!
