The Grooved Pavement
A not-so-jive Blaxploitation movie review podcast talk show hosted by Phan Media creator, Phanatiks Entertainment owner & Hudsy TV co-founder Shawn Strong along with Newburgh native genius & educator Decarius McClearn. The show is more than a review of the Blaxploitation era of the '70s but an analysis. An exploration of the exploitation period. But not just the entertainment aspect of it but also the politics that had its hand in it before and during the makings of this cultured cinema genre. We are talking about the movies' cast, music, and today's continual connections, trivia, TV shows, and more.https://linktr.ee/Thegroovedpavement

Black Angels from Hell was a really bad movie. Period!
Black Brigade aka Carter's Army, was a war drama movie made for TV with an all-star cast Starring Richard Pryor, Rosey Grier, Robert Hooks, Billy Dee Williams and Moses Gunn. Co-written by Aaron Spelling. It was the Dirty Half Dozen.
