Blaxploitation Recommendations


I’ve been revisiting several 70’s Blaxploitation films recently. I watched Coffy (1973), Across 110th Street (1972) and Superfly (1972) all of which are great serious films. Then I ran across one I hadn’t seen called Disco Godfather (1979) with Rudy Ray Moore. This one was so entertaining and bizarre because unlike in Dolemite (1975), Moore plays the wacky role straight. It got me looking for others I haven’t seen yet.

If anyone has any lesser known recommendations from this genre it would be greatly appreciated. I’ve seen most of the well known ones but I’m curious about what others might be out there that have slipped under my radar like Disco Godfather.
