In selected theaters next week. I’ll let Emyri tell you what this is:
The plot:
After serving his country in the Army, Unique is falsely accused of assault and sent to prison. Once released, Unique sets up shop in Ohio to restart his life, linking up with his only surviving relative, Ramsey. There’s something insidious happening in this town, though, as its racist sheriff and his crew of similarly bigoted acolytes all have a knack for violence and share a gruesome secret pertaining to a recent string of missing young Black men. When they set their sights on Unique and turn his life upside down, the former soldier has no choice but to bring the ruckus down on the sheriff and his goons.
Two people sent me this video link. One of them said that I should review this RZA film. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen this film and couldn’t find it, but I’m 100% sure the clip is legit. I will watch it when I can. It was shot and edited with a retro aesthetic, a throwback to grindhouse cinema, using old-school film techniques rather than relying solely on modern digital HD video. So you can see Tarantino’s influence. (There is even one scene in the trailer where the characters are watching one of those dubbed martial arts films that Tarantino adores.)

Emyri came pretty close to a Full Heche.
