I will never profess to be well learned in the ways of the Blaxploitation genre, but if there was ever a time to dive right into it it will be this July on VOD. Xenon Pictures (Straight Outta Compton) is releasing a lineup of remastered Blaxploitation titles next month on most VOD platforms, a dozen in all. Next month we can watch Sweet Sweetback, Dolemite, The Human Tornado, Disco Godfather, Petey Wheatstraw, Welcome to Death Row, The Muthers, Blackenstein, Penitentiary, Penitentiary II, Death Force and Lord Shango. You should be able to find these titles on major players like iTunes, Amazon, Google Play and more. Below we have nearly every trailer for each release and some promotional images as well. Enjoy, suckas! ...

Anyone who has ever been married knows that In-laws, even the kindest ones, are no joke. Now, just imagine if the father of your betrothed is the Devil himself. This is the predicament in which Rudy Ray Moore's Petey Wheatstraw found himself in Moore's follow-up to The Human Tornado, and the film proved to be a turning point in his career as a performer. Moore returned to the big screen two years after The Human Tornado with another one of his stage characters in Petey Wheatstraw. Petey is another touring comedian, just like Dolemite in Moore's earlier films, who is rolling into a new town with his crew to set up shop for a standing gig. Little does he know that a pair of busted...

While there is a whiff of social commentary in this low-budget spoof of the 2013 horror The Purge, only a comic performance from Bresha Webb provides any impact
“Daddy, they Purgin’!” So shouts Bresha Webb, whose comic performance in the ultra low-budget Meet the Blacks is so unpredictable and versatile it virtually makes up for the film’s many dull patches. Webb, who is 28 but plays the teen daughter of Carl Black, has a range that zips from Judy Holliday-like ditz to an antic, Kevin Hart-style faux toughie over the course of just one scene. That’s probably not a good indicator of the film’s overall consistency, but considering how ridiculous this movie is, ditching credibility for the higher cause of a laugh at any price is probably the right decision. Meet the Blacks is an asinine film (though with a kernel of seriousness) but whenever it feels...

a.k.a The Six Thousand Dollar Nigger
1978, dir: Rene Martinez
The film opens up in the laboratory of pint-sized Dr. Dippy, played by Peter Conrad (Porky’s), where we find himself and his attractive laboratory technician are working on a serum to give people superhuman strength. Unfortunately, those who use it will die within a few days. Bob and Jim, the thugs funding the project played by Benny Latimore (Soul Train) and Lee Cross (Guns of the Timberland), are growing impatient with Dippy’s slow progress of creating a neutraliser for the potent serum and decide to take matters in to their own hands by finding a wino to inject with the serum so they can rob a safe from a local jewellery store. Luckily for them, a local wino by the name of Steve, played by Wildman Steve (Petey Wheatstraw), fits the bill perfectly! He is scooped off...
