Just watched BLACULA & SCREAM, BLACULA, SCREAM again and I tell you what - William Marshall is a freakin' awesome actor!  Besides being great at his craft,  he makes a really powerful & menacing vampire.  Forgot how cool these flicks are.

Yours truly and the Queen of Blaxploitation, the ever-lovely Pam -- I still have a crush on her. She and the rest of the cast were so terrific in "Jackie Brown", by far my favorite Tarantino film -- she should have gotten the Oscar for that. She's a really sweet lady and I sure enjoyed meeting and talking with her.

Love the opening sequence to Jackie Brown. Good movie. And a good move casting Pam as an air hostess!

McDougal - that looks like a family portrait! You two could be mistaken for man and wife!   ;D

He was a Shakspherian trained actor who really gave the films he starred in class.

Great picture. I think Jackie Brown is probably my favorite Tarantino film and such a great soundtrack.

I have to revisit some of the films listed here.

Wow! An awesome picture, man! You both look great! I've always been a big fan of hers. Coffy and Foxy Brown are amongst my top faves.

From Blacula to Pam Grier to SuperFly, 70's Black centric films are still great to watch.

Another favorite is Across 110th Street. Gritty 70's crime drama.

Ah yes BaronLatos, the song "Across 110th Street" was the ending theme to "Jackie Brown".
