We descend into the world of LA-based bounty hunters this week as we plow through 1974’s blaxploitation film Truck Turner. It has everything you want from a classic blaxploitation: a ruggedly handsome protagonist, pimps and hoes, hit-men, bar fights, chases, intimidation and a funky soundtrack as well as plenty of stuff you didn’t need (but love anyways) like: constant reminders our hero smells like cat piss, rituals of a pimp funeral, sneakily getting your girlfriend arrested for her own protection, Nichelle Nichols being unhinged and singing your own love song over your own love scene.
Spoiler Filled Film Conversation, Hooray!
