Black Devil Doll (2007)

At a glance:
Remember Child's Play (1988)? Blaxploitation lives but this really ought to have been better. Story? A negro version of Chucky fucks and kills busty sluts. Made by Lewis brothers Shawn and Jonathan, two cats who did manage to get the DVD some heavy online presence. Check out their website.
Bad news on the doorstep:
Intentionally bad. Incoherent. Degenerate. Lazy. Empty. It's artistic goal is to offend people and get all the publicity it can.
Reminds me of:
The best blaxploitation movie ever made - Superfly (1972).
Watch out for:
Mayonnaise sex, cheap fake blood, wet t-shirt car wash etc.
