Bucktown
Starring: Fred Williamson, Pam Grier
Director: Arthur Marks
Fred Williamson (Black Caesar) proves once again he's the ultimate soul brother -
dark, daring and ready for surprises. He and sexy co-star Pam Grier (Jackie Brown)
heat up the sheets and the streets in this scintillating soul flick about a city ripped
apart by prejudice, greed and plenty of gangsta' action. Dean Johnson (Williamson) arrives
in Bucktown to bury his murdered brother. He then takes over his brother's bar and
everything that comes with it: the good - which includes a foxy local gal (Grier) -
and the bad - a sleazy police force who shake him down for protection money.
Proving he can't be pushed, Johnson calls in his big city brothers who move into town
with the necessary firepower to set things straight. But when the smoke clears,
Johnson finds that his victorious cohorts are just as bad as the bigoted cops they've
just destroyed, and now he has to rid the city of his violent friends - by any means
necessary! Fast, funky and simmering with hot suspense and super cool action,
Bucktown explodes like sparks and gasoline - setting small town America on fire!
