This special limited edition deluxe magnet box + slipcover set (designed by El Cesart), includes a 40-page perfect bound book and is limited to 6,000 units. It is only available on our website and at select indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them.

When his brother June Bug winds up dead under mysterious, jewelry-related circumstances, Army Sergeant Jack Spade returns to his city to find out what really happened. Finding his family harassed by flunkies for the local crime lord, Mr. Big, Jack turns to the legendary neighborhood hero of his youth, John Slade, for help in avenging his brother. It's going to take more than one local hero to get the neighborhood cleaned up, but luckily Slade's old ass-kicking pals Hammer, Slammer, Flyguy, and Kung Fu Joe are all eager to help. That is, if Jack can just stop his Mama from doing the fighting for him.

An affectionate, sharp send-up of Blaxploitation, I'M GONNA GIT YOU SUCKA marked the directorial debut of Keenen Ivory Wayans (Scary Movie). Wayans both wrote and starred in the lead role alongside his talented siblings, all of whom went on to the groundbreaking sketch comedy show In Living Color. Boasting a sprawling cast including genre icons Bernie Casey (Cleopatra Jones, In The Mouth of Madness), Jim Brown (Three the Hard Way, The Running Man), Isaac Hayes (Truck Turner), and Antonio Fargas (Shaft), the film updated themes towards a new generation's aesthetics, including a soundtrack featuring KRS-One, The Gap Band, Curtis Mayfield, and Fishbone. Vinegar Syndrome Ultra is proud to bring you this gold-plated cult action/comedy in 4K UHD via a new scan of its original camera negative.

Reviews

One of the year's great home-media surprises!

"I'm Gonna Get You Sucka is one of the great comedies of the 1980s - it is to blaxploitation cinema what Airplane was to disaster films, and it's just as hilarious. But I'd never assumed it would get as stunning a 4K debut as Vinegar Syndrome has given it. It looks like a new film, and it makes you realize what a great craftsman Keenan Ivory Wayans was. And the bonus features are wonderful and extensive!"

Joshua K. (5/5)

SUCKA

"Iconic soundtrack, star-studded cast of genre darlings, and enough intentional puns and parodies to make any exploitation film fan point at the screen and cackle with laughter from start to finish. I'm Gonna Get You Sucka was the debut film from Keenan Wayans and surprisingly, the only from him I had yet to see. I loved it! "That's my theme music. Every good hero should have some. ""

Branden Y. (5/5)

Blaxploitation Parody at Its Finest

"A funny directorial debut from Keenen, backed by a cast of familiar faces. If you're a fan of the Wayans brothers' comedies or blaxploitation films, this spoof is an essential watch. VSU's packaging is always top-notch."

Noel H. (5/5)

Great Parody Flick!

"It's pretty impressive how good this early film is in Keenan Ivory Wayans' filmography is. I had seen this on TV when I was a kid, but only remembered a few scenes. Was so happy when I noticed one of those scenes in the preview pictures. VSU packaging is great as always and the 4K transfer really pops on a decent TV. Definitely check this out if you're a fan of any of the other Wayans' films or parodies in general."

Alex B. (5/5)

Still Funny

"Re watching this in 2026 and i will say i didnt find it as funny as i did when I first saw it back in the 90s. But the parts that are still hilarious are really bloody funny. The disc looks and sounds great, I havent got through the extras yet, but this is a really great upgrade from the old Kino bluray i had. Only negative is this image artwork is awful."

David H. (5/5)

A true Classic Comedy comes to 4K locked and loaded…

"Comedies get no respect, especially in amongst Boutique labels. Vinegar Syndrome is about to change that if this massive stacked release is any indication. This 4K UHD release of I’m Gonna Git You Sucka is one of the best releases of 2026. From the last excellent 4K restoration and the special features they include 90 minutes of interviews and a commentary track they give a context to this important comedy satire."

Adam K. (5/5)

The Wayans Brothers First and Best!

"Still hilarious. Very happy this film got the deluxe treatment from VS. the packaging is great and only bested by its pristine 4k restoration. You owe it to yourself to have this one in your shelf."

JONATHAN R. (5/5)

Not one for me

"I’m a huge fan of the 70’s blaxploitation movies but this one just did not cut it for me unfortunately. Great looking packaging and release though."

I'm Gonna Git You Sucka

"delivers an affectionate, sharp and very funny send-up of 1970s genre tropes, pairing a stellar comedic cast with a solid physical and visual upgrade."
