Synopsis
Black Maria Film Collective is on the Blaxploitation bend this September with a screening of Rudy Ray Moore's inept 1974 classic DOLEMITE! Ripe with dialogue as poorly-written as it is delivered, editing that is charitably lacking, and 'kung-fu' fight scenes that have to be seen to be believed, DOLEMITE is a wish-fulfilment vanity project like no other.Comedian and actor Rudy Ray Moore plays the eponymous bad-ass mofo DOLEMITE, who, after being framed for possession of drugs and stolen furs and locked up for a couple of years, is freed by the warden on the provision that he catches the gangster that set him up - Willie Green, according to some folks "the baddest mother-- of them all!"
"Dolemite is my name and f#cking up motherf#ckers is my game!"
