Two Versions Of The Most Notorious Blaxploitation Shocker Of Them All…

And The Most Insane Backstory Ever.

You may have heard of this infamous Blaxploitation/Horror hybrid, but the real story is even more bizarre: In 1973, criminal-lawyer-turned-wannabe-monster-movie-mogul Frank R. Saletri wrote and produced this grindhouse hit about a Black soldier mortally wounded in Vietnam transformed into a rampaging monster by an L.A. mad scientist. Almost a decade later, Saletri himself would be murdered gangland-style in a crime that remains debated – and unsolved – to this day. John Hart (TV’s “The Lone Ranger”), ‘40s Hollywood starlet Andrea King (THE BEAST WITH FIVE FINGERS) and even former mob moll/stripper Liz Renay (DESPERATE LIVING) star in this jaw-dropper directed by William A. Levey (THE HAPPY !!!%%+ GOES TO WASHINGTON), now restored with all-new Special Features that spotlight the entire twisted saga!

Special Features:

Theatrical Release Version (78 Mins.) and Video Release Version (87 Mins.)
Monster Kid: Interview with Writer / Producer Frank R. Saletri’s Sister, June Kirk
Archive News Broadcast On The Murder Of Writer / Producer Frank R. Saletri
Producers / Directors / Actors Ken Osborne And Robert Dix Remember Writer / Producer Frank R. Saletri
Bill Created Blackenstein: Interview With Creature Designer Bill Munns
Theatrical Trailer

That's good

We already have 'Blacula' and now we only need 'The Blunchblack Of Blotre Blame' and 'The Blummy' to complete the classic blaxploitation horror films quartet...or do they only exist in Springfield?

It's actually a pretty good film - one of my favourite Blaxploitation horror rip-offs in any case.
