3.0 out of 5 stars Ring My Bell!..., May 15, 2006

This review is from: TNT Jackson (DVD)

Jeannie Bell is TNT Jackson! She's on the trail of the scum-suckin' pigs who killed her brother! Watch out! TNT's not just beautiful, she's a martial arts master (mistress?) w/ vengeance on her mind! Yes, this movie does contain our heroine's topless kung-fu battle! Ms. Bell is semi-convincing in her role, talking tough while allowing her stunt-double to jump and fly through the air. Still, there is a nice butterfly-knife sequence and enough nudity and charm to make things bearable. Not bad...

2.0 out of 5 stars Watchable Mess from the 70s, July 18, 2001

This review is from: TNT Jackson (DVD)

Roger Corman's New World Pictures combines blaxploitation with chop-sockey in this 1975 exploitation film that was directed by Cirio Santiago, a Filipino director who did a number of films for Corman. The plot is simple; Diana "TNT" Jackson avenges her brother's murder and becomes involved with drug dealers, including Stan Shaw, who sports a huge Afro and wears a 70s era pimp wardrobe throughout the film. Jeanne Bell portrays TNT Jackson . . . she can't act and her kung-fu moves are laughable as she chops and kicks various Filipino and Chinese extras. In fact, almost all of the kung-fu scenes are among the worst choreographed fight scenes ever filmed. Viewed today, this film is unitentionally funny and might make a good party DVD, though there is some nudity and coarse language, reflecting the film's exploitation roots.

The running time listed on this Brentwood Communications release says 90 minutes, but the film runs just over 70 minutes. Unfortunately, the print used by Brentwood is not good . . . numerous scratches and artifacts are found throughout the film and the soundtrack is poorly recorded; you'll have to crank your volume up to hear the dialog. Brentwood also includes a few extras on their budget DVDs, including a "Casper, the Friendly Ghost" cartoon, an interactive movie trivia game, a dictionary of DVD terms, 6 chapter stops for the film, and a special internet connection for those viewers having a DVD-ROM equipped on their computer. Not a bad deal for five bucks.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Party DVD with limitations, December 15, 2005

By

This review is from: TNT Jackson (DVD)

I won't say much here, Many Others have basically described this DVD properly, the Film Transfer is Poor, but watchable, the Acting and Plot is CAMP at its finest! The Best Scene involves a Karate attack Main Character Jeanne Bell imparts on 2 Fillipinos, after telling One "I've never Made It with a Chink before"....During the Struggle, Jeanne Bell appears in White and then Black Panties, an amusing Error in the editing process; at this Price, TNT Jackson is a MUST for Your Library....
