Must be seen to be believed.
Just saw this on TCM, and I haven't laughed this hard in a LONG time. The racism is SO over the top it becomes farcical. I don't think this movie could even be made today. Given that it was released in 1977 they must have been trying to make some sort of serious comment on societal racism, but the result is pure hilarity. So many classic scenes, such as the radio station interrupting their musical programming to announce that a black family has moved into the neighborhood - three little white kids see the black family get out of their car and start running down the street....I could go on and on. Liberal use of the N word, Nazi armbands, racist real estate agents, wretched acting, ridiculous dialogue - what more could you ask for? Strap yourself in and get ready for some 70's blaxploitation gold.
