Blaxploitation - Foxy Brown/ Coffy/ Black Mama, White Mama
Back in the day, Pam Grier was the baddest nubian princess on the block and the undisputed queen of the Blaxpoitation genre. This box set brings together three of her finest movies, in which Ms. Grier gets to kick plenty of booty! Foxy Brown: She's brown sugar and spice... and if you don't watch it, she'll put you on ice! Grier portrays one of the screen's first action heroines with humor, sensitivity and steely determination. This electrifying revenge thriller explodes with all the sex appeal and cooler-than-cool attitude of its irresistible leading lady. Foxy Brown (Grier) has found her soul mate in an undercover narcotics investigator, but when he is brutally murdered, she swears vengeance against the crime ring responsible. Posing as a call girl to gain access to the ring's inner circle, Foxy discovers just how high the corruption extends, igniting a blistering war that takes her from the city streets to a remote drug laboratory to a breathtaking mid-air battle behind the controls of an airplane! But the most startling confrontations are yet to come, as she schemes to bring down her boyfriend's killers in ways they never could have imagined. Coffy: She's the ultimate tough and sexy heroine. She's Soul Cinema superstar Pam Grier, and whether delivering her justice with a shotgun, a razor or just her bare hands, she doesn't miss a beat in this no-hold-barred tale of retaliation from exploitation writer/director Jack Hill. Grier is Coffy, nurse by day and avenging angel by night. When she discovers that her little sister has been doped up - and freaked out - by a greedy drug pusher, she not only puts an end to his miserable days, but she vows to follow his trail of corruption up to the top - the very top. But what Coffy doesn't realise is that all is not what it seems - and that the leafy green behind the pushers' scene just may come from someone she knows! Black Mama, White Mama: Grier is Lee Daniels, a prostitute doing hard time in an island prison camp for women where the guards have a new way to punish inmates who fight: by cuffing 'em together! Chained to her bitter rival, white revolutionary Karen (Margaret Markov), Lee finds herself literally linked to the revolutionary cause - and on the fly - when Karen's guerrilla friends stage a coup! But this foxy inmate's got a cause of her own in the form of a secret stash of cold, hard cash and a getaway boat! Brawling with her white counterpart over which way to go, and tracked like a dog by guards, guerrillas and a gangster after the loot, she's gotta make her escape - before both mamas' enemies bring them down for good!
Lifelong pals, Gus and Joe, spend their time dreaming of catching 'the big one' on a trip to the Florida everglades. But when a couple of cons steal their car they find themselves involved in one of the biggest adventures of their lives, searching for a heist of hidden jewels.
