Jack Hill's Foxy Brown Arrow Blu-ray and Blu-ray Steelbook

Jack Hills' Foxy Brown Arrow Blu Ray and Blu Ray Steelbook





When Foxy Brown’s undercover-agent boyfriend is gunned down on the orders of evil drug kingpins, she stops at nothing to exact a thrillingly brutal revenge. This is one of the all-time great blaxploitation films, pulling out all the stops at a time long before anyone thought of inventing political correctness.

Pam Grier was given the role of a lifetime as the street-smart yet intensely sexy Foxy, modelling a stupendously varied range of Seventies threads while righteously kicking villainous white butt at every opportunity. She’s also given sterling support from Antonio ‘Huggy Bear’ Fargas as her no-good younger brother and a memorably funky soundtrack.

It’s clear that Quentin Tarantino is a huge fan: he cast Grier in the title role of his direct homage Jackie Brown, while the one-woman revenge scenario that fuelled the Kill Bill films didn’t just come from the Far East.

Looking lovely this is.

I like the steelbook artwork, but I just like the regular one so much more

Same. I'm hoping its on the reverse of the steelbook.

[Baseball Fury]

I really like the steelbook!

People that don't, y'all niggers are CRAZY.

Not much of a fan of this genre, but that steelbook is mighty enticing, I think I'll probably get this eventually. The normal artwork is very impressive though

[Nosferatu@Cult Labs]

I prefer the artwork on the keep case, but I'll probably buy the Steelbook.

[Gojirosan]

Both pics are nice, but I don't like steelbooks.

[Demdike@Cult Labs]

Decent features as well.

The regular blu is my favorite artwork of the new titles that were just announced. I love some Pam Grier.

[Criterion7]

Don't like the steelbook artwork. I'll pick this one up, Coffy's a better film though.
