Stick It To The Man With BLACK DYNAMITE!

Todd Brown, Founder and Editor
Ladies and gentlemen, Black Dynamite needs your help.  Regular readers of this space are well aware of our love for this film already and we're asking you to go out and support it.  Sony took a big risk by dropping a lot of money to pick this one up and put it out in theaters, risk being a figurative as well as literal four letter word around studios these days.  They thought it was worth it because fans like us made some noise and now it's up to us to get out and support it.  If we don't the consequences go a lot farther than just this one movie.  You see, studios generally only support things that have easy and obvious - and successful - comparison points in films that have come before.  This is why Hollywood puts out a never ending stream of the same old stuff and why the remake craze is in such full effect.  If, when they take a chance on something original and unusual, the risky films fail they will simply respond by refusing to support any more risky films - in other words the sort of stuff that we love around here. 

This is Black Dynamite's opening weekend and opening weekend is king.  If it performs it has a chance of expanding and receiving an increased marketing push. If it fails, it gets yanked and the hopes of a whole lot of other unusual films get yanked with it.  So, if you're near any of the following theaters and looking for a film alternative to the fucking Vampire's Assistant then get out and see this.
