Dolemite

(1975)Directed by D'Urville Martin90 min · RAction, Comedy, Crime
“With his All-Girl Army of Kung Fu Killers!”

Someone planted drugs, stolen furs and guns in the trunk of Dolemite (Rudy Ray Moore), and the cops who found them were glad to, which is how a nightclub pimp ends up serving twenty years. A warden and Queen Bee (Lady Reed) arrange his release so he can go after Willie Green (D'Urville Martin) and the men who set him up. Martin shoots it on grainy, low-budget film, and Moore stands in his flashy suit in the middle of the frame, rhyming.
