Black Dynamite in Theaters this October

Sony announced that Apparition, a new distribution company, has picked up Black Dynamite to be released on the general public October 16th. The blaxploitation flick stars Michael Jai White in the title role. Black Dynamite, in classic homage, is a gun-and-nunchuk-wielding womanizer fighting from blood-soaked streets to the hallowed halls of the Honky House. The cats over at FirstShowing have a review from Sundance here.

Sony Worldwide Acquisitions’ Steve Bersch explains “We knew we had a clever and intelligent laugh-out-loud film when we bought Black Dynamite in Sundance. Since then, the film has enjoyed over-the-top receptions on the film festival circuit, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring the film to the public.” Apparition’s Bob Berney added, “Scott Sanders has made a classic: a movie that audiences quote lines from walking out of the theater, Michael Jai White gives a kick-ass, hilarious performance that shows true knowledge and love of the genre. This one is really fun to be a part of; I discover new laughs every time I see the film.”
