Customer Reviews

Great resource for film buffs

Offers mini-reviews of not only films in the genre, but partial crew credits and reaons why the films were (or weren't) important. Pretty up-to-date, but we could do with another revision now (3 years later). There isn't any TV stuff in here, but it makes up for it by covering a host of foreign and Blaxploitation films. Strong resource and a pretty fun read otherwise.
