Camp counselors Jackie and Greg talk about Jack Hill's COFFY from 1973. Topics of discussion include the film's place in the blaxploitation subgenre, Pam Grier's tough-as-nails heroine, its influence on Quentin Tarantino, and why it's still a startling piece of filmmaking over 50 years later.
The monthly S'mores series is an offshoot from our main series, where Jackie and Greg explore films from the fringes of cinema, encompassing underground, experimental, cult, camp, genre, horror, and B-movies. S'mores episodes are unlocked by becoming either a Patron or Friend of the Show (see below). These episodes are released on the last Tuesday of each month.
