Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Oh, what a day in the hood it turned out to be for Jesse
I was lucky, or unlucky, enough to see this movie Fri. night 3/21/08 on the TCM channel. This is what you get when you can't sleep. By the way, it was followed by Penitentiary, but I digress. This movie hooked me like a roadside fatality car accident, I didn't want to look, but I couldn't look away. The acting was awful, but the story was interesting; it showed the lengths a sister would go to for her man, when she ain't got nothing to lose and she is from "Sippi" or Mississippi for the unhip. ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Old School

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Title is misleading

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Watch it for what it is - Blaxploitation
When I brought this movie I wasn't expecting much. I thought maybe a movie that would show me a good plot and a low budget production set but nothing more. However, when I started to watch "Black Sisters Revenge" I saw how fast it moved from when Emma (a country girl and the star of the movie) first came to Compton to live with her aunt's family to how she started to shuffle and jivin' in the "chicken n' biscuit joint"; she went to a house party where of course the movie had to show "brothers and sisters" ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - "Nobody, I mean nobody, celebrates at Jack In The Box."
I love the plot keywords listed for the film Black Sister's Revenge (1976) aka Emma Mae on The Internet Movie Database...Hit In Crotch, Racial Slur, Independent Film, Blaxploitation...not much, but you had me at `Hit In Crotch'. Written, produced, and directed by Jamaa Fanaka (Penitentiary, Penitentiary II, Street Wars), the film features a cast of relative unknown performers, many in their only screen role, including Jerri Hayes, Eddie Allen, Charles D. Brooks III (Soul Vengeance), Malik Carter (Black Belt ... Read More
