Title: Impressive and bold!!
Product review: I was reading a bio on the late actor Don Blakely when, while reading a list of his film appearances, came across this film. My mother remembers hearing about it, but, when she and my dad went to see it, the film had been pulled from the few theaters that had the balls to show it.I can see why this film raised eyebrows, but, I think that was the whole idea. This should be required viewing from anyone who even thinks of becoming a filmaker. This film can also educate, not just blacks, but everyone.People can learn how a group of people can be pushed to desperate measures and use what they've been taught agianst the teachers. "The spook who sat by the door" is one of the best 70's era black films that I've seen in a long time, but to call this a "blaxpoitation" film to me would be an insult. Also,the quality is amazing! I'm glad time was taken to properly restore the sound and visual aspects.
