Oh!..so this is the Brother who was originally pick to play (Williams) in Bruce Lee's Warner Brothers "ENTER THE DRAGON"!..which was told by the tabloids & directors of the flim that Mr.Tarkington backed down for unknown apparent reasons & was replaced by non other than Middleweight Karate Champion Sensi Jim (Black Belt Jones) Kelly!..WOW!..watta turnaround! =0o
Please note that at 2:03 that car drives through a garage door and keeps on running. That was the era of REAL cars. No way you could do that now with anything smaller than a Hummer.
"He is mean and clean and roles the scene" :D GOOD one! the best part is 2:16. the look at his face:) every gate,street, hood and places in the world need a samson!! ;)
Homie it's just Youtube. Paul said not to get into silly quarrels and disputes.
Have u ever seen a person frm the mid east?
Have u seen the color of bronze? An African is not bronze...Beside that scripture reference is referring to the image of the returned Christ, not in walking earth form.
Jews got nappy hair to...wool. & John 10 is simply Christ makin reference to Psalm 82 when God is claiming his own. What dif does it make?
The trailer is funny cuz he keeps bragging about how clean the streets are but at the end, they're the ones who make it dirty...lol. (And btw, I know when he says clean he's referring to crimes and drugs and all dat)
I always loved how Blaxploitation trailers always told the plotline to the film, so much you never had to go see it...Ive seen Black Sampson a few times, pretty much what you see in the trailer is the total film from start to finish..
had no idea it was this many black movies no wounder when we was kids my older cusin boyfriend wanted to take us to the movies every sunday to see these type of movies lol
I bet a lot of people didn't know that Rockne Tarkington(Black Samson) was the original Williams in Enter the Dragon not Jim Kelly but he quit because he felt there was too much racial slurs or something like that.Even though kelly didn't become a hollywood superstar he is still remembered.I wonder if Black Samson ever regretted that move.
@CoffySarai God bless the dead...FINALLY!!! I picked up mine yesterday. Saw it on the rack and flipped! Warner Bros. has done a righteous thing. I hope others follow their lead. I only paid $10 for mine and the prints are gorgeous for their age. Great job WB!
No red logo on the new DVD, but it has a very seventies font. The exact same as the one used on BLACK SHAMPOO. I've never seen SAMSON until this DVD... Was the Red logo on there previously? Or just for the trailer? (Which is sadly NOT on the DVD set...)
@gtypetroop What are U smoking...Samson was a Jew....a Hebrew.
The whole point of his story was about how he had a love of foreign women that God of the old testament did not approve of for jews, becuz they worshipped pagan gods.
@PumaSweat ...hey idiot true Jews were and are Black/assuming you dont have the ability to overstand,i'll help,.in a few hundred years the Indians were decimated..this continent newly populated,,now fathom the whole Fertile Crescent,being fought over for thousands of years,whole groups of people wiped clean through genocide and every other "cide",totally displaced,replaced,impregnated,smashing baby campaigns,and crusades,pillaged and burn everything,over and over and over and over,uncountable
@gtypetroop Thanks for the "HELP" but you can keep it. Sorry if I disrespected you by saying what are u smoking. I shouldn't have. But I don't believe that Jews were or are black. The fact that Christ was a jew and there is no description of his physical appearance is proof that color and race aint important to God.
You can believe what you want but I don't buy all that %5 false Islam geto solar knowledge of self "you are gods" mess. People will always hear what they want to do what they want.
@PumaSweat ...im not surprised by your inability to recognize truth when its presented to you..you along with the masses have been programmed to accept what you have been force fed..and i think you need to look again..their is a description..skin of bronze (think dirty penny), hair of wool (think 9 ether), and voice of many waters (think Barry White tone)...this is the information age...all will be revealed in the end..the internet is the oracle..their is no excuse for your continued ignorance
Black Samson is one bad mother..."Shut your mouth!"....wait...wrong movie! XD
But seriously, this movie looks awesome, yet unwillingly hilarious, the trailer made me laugh my ass off yet still wanna see the movie seriously XD 5* and just awesome!
The climax to this was insane, people dropping bottles, food, refridgerators, stoves, other people, etc. from the roofs. Dose anyone know if its on dvd yet?
You really think so? You've been in every "black" area in America? You're making such a broad generalization. Guess you've never been in working class black areas, upper middle class black areas and wealthy black areas. Hmmm.
@Yojimbo1AK yeah! tell me,Y is it that if a mulatto has a child with a white man/woman,their kid is still considered black?Don't you think it is this rejective attitude that is driving white people to become an endangered race?reply
@Yojimbo1AK hehehe....grey babies...nice one,first time i have heard that.If that is the case then in the end both of us(Whites and Blacks) will be extinct and the "greys" will dominate the world
Ever since I saw the poster with Samson in with a huge afro, a dashiki, a big stick and a LION - I wanted to see this so bad. I don't think it's on DVD though correct me if I'm wrong?
And yeah it does sound like they dubbed Samson's voice...god knows why.
I was thinking the same thing. It sure sounds like it was a dub. For them to do that, they guy either had a bad accent, wasn't strong vocally or the studio felt they needed a voice to go with the persona.
When I go into a club and see a lion, some superfly ladies and a man with a massive stick I'll know I've finally made it. I refuse to believe life could ever be bettered.
Yeah mazardiflash, a lot of people don't people don't realize that Ron O'Neal, who played the Priest in Superfly was a classically trained actor. A lot of guys in these films were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overqualified. Like Thalmus Rasulala, who had a part in Blacula but was also in The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman and Roots.
@mazaradiflash mara, you are right. He was a well accomplished actor on the stage but when the black action film boom of the 70's he was brought in to play black samson. Unfortunately,MGM (which made a majority of the black action films) stopped making these movies by the late 70's and hollywood wouldnt let black actors be in mainstream rolls in the 80's.
LOL...I've seen them both and they're great also. Blaxploitation at it's best. Also, if anyone's interested "Willie Dynamite" is shown often on the Tv-One channel.
