Blaxploitation
fans eat your
heart out! A
poppy field is
torched and
"Mommy"
(Shelly
Winters) is
hurtin'
something bad.
Bent on
revenge she
sends out a
hit squad to
kill detective
Cleopatra
Jones. (Tamara
Dobson) Car
chases, karate
chops, and
funny named
drug dealers
like Doodle
Bug (Antonio
Fargas) Pickle
and Snake
provide the
antics, while
Mommy does her
sleazy work,
to this dated
but fun film.
Picture
quality is
very good
considering
the films date
stamp.
Transferred
in Widescreen
letterbox
'Scope' aspect
ratio of it's
original
theatrical
exhibition.
Noise and
artifacts show
up constantly
throughout but
are not
distracting.
Color
rendition is
superb with
decent flesh
tone and black
retention.
Sound is
stereophonic
with the
original score
by jazz great
J.J. Johnson.
Right On!
