Horror movies have really been excelling lately at taking exploitation tropes like hyper violence, graphic sex, and pure scum and elevating it. We need to do the same with blaxploitation. People want more black led movies? People want fun ass action movies? Give Foxy Brown and Black Caesar the A24 treatment.

"Blaxploitation" was actually a slur created by Cicely Tyson and the NAACP because they thought the movies coming out of black Hollywood painted the black community in a bad light in front of white audiences. It's the reason why Melvin Van Peebles and other 70s black stars hated her guts.

Maybe not as a whole, but Id like more throwbacks like Undercover Brother (as well as pretending the sequel didnt happen) and They Cloned Tyrone.

Foxy Brown always gets mentioned (rightfully so) when it comes to classic 70s Pam Grier but more people need to put Coffy in the spotlight. I feel like it was her best movie until Jackie Brown.

Id definitely like to see a resurgence of that style of film.

Shaft
Dolemite
The Mack
Super Fly
Black Dynamite
Three the Hard Way

Many More. Hell yeah.

This is the first I've ever heard it existed, and now I know it apparently stars Michael Jai White. I kind of want to see it out of morbid curiosity

It does not in fact "star" Michael Jai White in the traditional sense. There's a bait and switch where he's at the beginning, ends up in a coma and doesn't reappear until the end of the film. 95% of the movie is about Undercover Brother's brother and it's awful.

Black community loves martial arts, it's a horribly untapped aesthetic, ripe for the picking.
