Black Dynamite (2009)

In 2009 we got the best homage/spoof explotitation film possibly in history. Tarantino and Rodriguez got together to do Grindhouse but this thing blows those movies away. Black Dynamite looks like a authentic Blaxploitation film from the 70's. The soundtrack seems like it coulda came straight out of The Mack and the wardrobe is incredible. Black Dynamite is a cross between Rudy Ray Moore, Fred Williamson and every other black bad ass motha fucka from trash 70's cinema. They really must have known their movies because it seems like every five seconds there is another reference to a specific Blaxploitation flick, from Dolemite to Coffy, from The Mack to T.N.T. Jackson and Black Belt Jones. Their all in here. Not only does the movie look like a legit 70's exploitation movie but its funny as hell and perfectly paced. It never seems to slow down or get the least bit boring. After watching this movie I had to paint myself up in black face and stare at the mirror because I want to be Black Dynamite.
