Storyline Eddie is a Vietnam veteran who loses his arms and legs when he steps on a
land mine, but a brilliant surgeon is able to attach new limbs.
Unfortunately an insanely jealous assistant (who has fallen in love with
Eddie's fiance) switches Eddie's DNA injections, transforming him into a
gigantic killer.
Storyline
Tyrone Tackett's brother wasn't the kind of man to throw his life away.
Somebody killed him, plain and simple. And by the time Tyrone
crisscrosses L.A. and pieces together the crime, lots of folks are going
to pay. With equal amounts of tough and sexy, Bernie Casey portrays
Tyrone and Pamela Grier plays a sultry skin-flick star in this first
Americanized remake of the iconic Michael Caine action film Get Carter.
From Watts to the West Side, from porno parlors to a high-rise, from
motel dives to a crime kingpin's sprawling pleasure dome, from corner
hangouts to a wildlife preserve, Tyrone covers a lot of real estate,
busts a lot of heads. And throughout, star Casey "keeps enough cool for a
half a dozen movie heroes" (Roger Greenspun, The New York Times).
Storyline A 1977 blaxploitation obscurity produced by Motown Films with an original soundtrack by Smokey Robinson! Small-time con man Big Time Eddie Jones hustles his way to the big payoff, while trying to stay one step ahead of insurance investigators, the FBI and the Mob. Think “Uptown Saturday Night” with a harder edge. Starring blaxploitation regular Christopher Joy and the lovely Jayne Kennedy, Big Time is about as rare as lost Blaxploitation films get.
