Coming soon to theaters: Black Dynamite!

This is one of the most talked about films to come out of this year's Sundance Film Festival. Black Dynamite stars Michael Jai White (Spawn, Dark Knight, Tyson, Undisputed II, Universal Solder: The Return) as the titular character, a former CIA agent, who seeks revenge on The Man. It's an absolute tribute (spoof) to the Blaxploitation films of the 70s like Shaft and Superfly. So it has all the cheesy elements like choppy editing, off timing stunt work, boom mic in the frame, pause in between dialogues, etc. If you look around the web, you can find the red band (i.e. naughty) trailer to the film. Lots of cameos and porn stars. The film was picked up by Sony for distribution. The movie's website also has cool merchandise.

Speaking of cool, here's a clip of Big Jim Slade from Kentucky Fried Movie (dedicated to fellow blogger, movie buff, and pop geek, Bri):
