Exploitation, anyone?

A pair of trailers to 'sploitation throwback flicks have hit the web, and they both look great. It's amazing how accurately they were able to capture the aesthetic and look of the genre, especially in the case of Black Dynamite, the blaxploitation effort. Even the actors look like they're straight out of a grindhouse. The second is a biker/road movie called Hell Ride, written and directed by a guy named Larry Bishop, a friend of Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino executive produced the flick and helped get it to Sundance earlier this year. Hell Ride gets props for having David Carradine and Dennis Hopper in the cast. Awesome. Both movies come out this year.
