Description

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.
