Fight For Your Life:
Total exploitative genius. Combined the Blax/Crime/and Revenge subgenres to great effect. The only down point was the main "straight as an arrow" cop's sudden change of heart towards the end? But thats never important when watching these kinda flicks.... I got what they meant (and it'd take spoliers to explain it so fuck that) it just wasn't executed very well.
I loved it. Guaranted to offend with its racial slurs and a nasty scene involving a rock but whatever. This is a true classic of 70s US cinema. Cinema with grit and guts that conveyed the deep seeded hatred/stereotypes (while over coming these points at the same time in its own crude way, which I feel is better because it hammers it home a hell of a lot more than the PC manner this subject matter usually gets) of the country at the time. Fuckin cool flick with the badest grandma this side of Surf Nazis Must Die!
