March 13, 2007This was the movie the cemented Pam Grier as one of the top action black female superstars of the 1970's and her first feature role in "Coffy" was one of them. If you want to see some good action and explosive violence to boot,please by all means check this movie out! It's precessdor,"Foxy Brown",also directed by Jack Hill is something to highly recommend too. The soundtrack to this movie sung by R&B legend Millie Jackson is worth listening!
