Viewing Notes
If you only need one reason to view this movie it would easily be Pam Grier. Holy smokes is she a beauty. Second to her this movie has an amazing cast! Yaphet Kotto, Carl Weathers, Eartha Kitt, Scatman Crothers, and many more! Oh and Jim Backus?! Damn.
The story is a tad overwrought and often makes little sense by the end but such a fun ride to get there. Did I mention Pam Grier? Wowsa. She lights up every frame.
Haha—> Ted Lange as Fancy Dexter the pimp.
