01/27/2016 I dug this one a bit more than the film it was paired with on a DVD (The Black Gestapo) but only because it was a bit different in its setting, amidst a black biker gang, and had some humor in there to break up the monotony. Rental? See more 08/14/2014 Worst blaxploitation movie? Worst one I've seen. Wonder if the finale inspired part of the Night Rider sequence in Django Unchained? See more 09/09/2013 The Black Six is a strange revenge film starring six NFL players including "Mean" Joe Greene. While the plot is hammy, the fight choreography is terrible, the acting is laughable, and the film as a whole is completely ridiculous, it manages to be a fun film the whole way through due to its rather awful production values. It's basically a time capsule to the 70's, but it's a fun film if you like cheesy exploitation films. It's far from being the best blaxploitation film I've ever seen, but The Black Six works. See more 10/27/2012 6 NFL stars play Vietnam vets who are happy drifting bikers until they head to cracker country to deal with a white biker gang that killed one of their brothers. Honkies should heed the ominous closing message. See more 08/25/2012 Bad 70's blaxploitation made interesting by the starring cast (6 All-Pro NFL players - plus Maury Wills as "coach") and some good 70's groovin' See more 06/18/2012 Awkward, overt rip-off of Melvin Van Peebles's SWEET SWEETBACK, right up to the warning title card that flashes before the closing credit. Amusing to see so many 1970s African American NFL stars in the title roles, and even funnier for the advertisement of their current team ("Starring Joe Greene of the Pittsburgh Steelers") in the opening montage. Passable if, like me, you're into cult cinema of the period. See more Read all reviews
