series Vengeance is Hers
Directed by Jack Hill | 1973
With Pam Grier, Booker Bradshaw, William Elliott, Allan Arbus, Sid Haig
“Jack Hill directs for maximal suspense, violence, and voyeuristic appeal (which Grier certainly embodies).”
—The Chicago Reader
Shotgun in tow, avenging angel Nurse “Coffy” Coffin (Grier) cleans up the neighborhood, ridding it of the pimps, pushers, and crooked politicians she blames for her kid sister’s drug addiction. Badass blaxploitation goddess Grier, the big screen’s original female action hero, is the unstoppable force that propels this stick-it-to-the-man cheapo classic.
