Quiz
James Brown was originally slated to do the music, but Larry Cohen rejected it. Motown artist Edwin Starr did the music, and Brown released the rejected music in the album, "The Payback".

Blooper
When Tommy stabs Palermo with an umbrella at Coney Island, the next shot featuring the squib/wound is clearly animated.

Citazioni
Woman: [after Gibbs shoots mafioso in Times Square] Aah!

Versioni alternative
An altered audio goof on the MGM DVD, but not the VHS release, occurs in one scene during the ambush in the beach house. Instead of hearing the women screaming, you hear additional gunshots, instead. The current Blu-ray from Olive Films corrects this mistake.

You never know whose doing up your socks and underwear.

70s action and a blaxploitation classic with Fred Williamson (The Inglorious Bastards - 1978, MASH) as Black Caesar leading the way backed up by the luscious Gloria Hendry.

Lots of shoot-em-up action as the black gangsters take on the Mafia and the crooked cops that support them.

Things settle down, Black Caesar moves to LA, and comes back with a vengeance when his pops is killed. Cute scene where Mafia in park dies with hot dogs in their mouths.

The dialog and story wasn't the greatest, but if you are looking for righteous action, you've come to the right place.
