The Keep it Oldskool "in the cut" movie of the day
In continuing with the "in the cut" movies that many have not seen and in the Blaxploitation vane there is "3 The Hard Way" a 1974 action movie that starred at the time the 3 hottest African American action stars. Jim Brown (former NFL player,The Dirty Dozen, Slaughter) Jim Kelly (Enter the Dragon, Black Belt Jones) and Fred Williamson (Black Caesar,Hell Up in Harlem, Bucktown)
The premise was fairly simple the 3 have to band together to thwart a plot hatched by "the man" who has created a serum that is lethal and only affects African Americans. This movie was another in a long line of "Puttin Foot to Ass" classics. These movies were escapism for many in the community that felt the "foot of the man on they back" In these movies the "brothers and sisters" always came out on top
