255. Boss Nigger (1975)

June 2, 2014

Fred Williamson and D'Urville Martin take over a small minded town in this hysterical blaxploitation western. On the hunt for some outlaws to capture and turn in dead or alive for a hefty reward, Williamson and Martin find their way to a town where the crooked politicians have pretty much made it a free-for-all for the outlaws to do as they please. It just so happened that before they showed up in town, Williamson found a note from the town's mayor that declared the holder of said note the new town sheriff. With the note in hand, Williamson declared himself sheriff and appointed Martin as his deputy and together they created a list of new town rules which allowed them to throw whoever they wanted in jail and extort random amounts of money from them. It was awesome! There was a semi-interesting side story going on about a girl whose father was killed by the outlaws and then she went to live with the Indians and Williamson fell in love with her. Mostly the movie was just hilariously absurd and absurdly hilarious. I watched it with Libby and my friend Nick and we all loved it.
