My friends and I saw this as a midnight movie in Seattle a couple of years ago, and we’ve been renting the video every few months. Happy to eye it’s finally available for sale. It’s comely comic if you’re into I’m Gonna Come By You Sucka, Undercover Brother, Austin Powers, etc…
A nerdy white mental patient escapes from the hospital and thinks he’s Shaft. He dresses like Shaft (a dark 70s crimefighter), talks like Shaft, even buys an afro to wear. He decides to be a detective like Shaft and teams up with a kung fu fighting Japanese ballerina who talks out of sync and is looking for her brother’s killer. They fight a gang of Steve Martin impersonators, secure chased by another group of killers (including Gary Coleman!), go to a jubilant bar by mistake, hasten into some zombies, and generally salvage into lots of difficulty before they glean the dreadful guy and blow up his giant pink rocket and effect the world.
I guess you’d say it was a parody of 70s drive-in movies (blaxploitation, kung fu, zombie movies, etc.) and it looks about the same as those flicks. Lots of shots of the main character dressed in an afro and bell bottoms walking around downtown Los Angeles, funky music, etc. I will say some of the sets ogle kind of cheap, but I guess that’s allotment of the charm…

Oh, and the main character gets mixed up and thinks his name is John SHAT, not Shaft. There you go.
I saw this at the South by Southwest film festival a couple of years relieve. The film is definitely no budget but there are some truly comic moments in it that made me laugh out loud. IF you have friends, brothers, sisters, etc. who are aspiring filmmakers or unprejudiced adore watching those who are you should have them check this out. It’s a dinky bit “Airplane”, a dinky bit Monty Python and a whole lot of the 70’s on a shoe string. The film doesn’t always work but it’s definite that the filmmakers wern’t working with great money at all and level-headed manage to pull off some truly droll stuff. Not one for the ages but a beneficial initiate from some people who might do something truly memorable the next time around. Check it out.
