Truck Turner (1974)
7/10
Tell them you got hit by a Truck
6 May 2006
One of the more enjoyable Blacksploitation films of the '70's has uber-legend Issac Hayes as Matt 'Truck' Turner, a skip tracer, and his partner getting a hit placed on them after one of their targets dies. This film is full of great action, but what puts it ahead of other movies of it's ilk is it's overriding feeling of playfulness that can be found throughout the movie. And while Issac Hayes has made one or two extremely stupid moves in the recent past (quitting South Park above all), this film is him at the top of his game cinematically and is very easy to recommend for it's action as well as it's laugh out loud moments. Plus Dick Miller has a small part in it, and he's great in whatever he does.

My Grade: B+

DVD Extras: Just the Theatrical Trailer (we need a Special Edition ASAP)

Eye Candy: Annik Borel gets topless
