VHS : Shaft [1971]
I always see this movie as a great Harlem detective story. Shafts pulsate with street-level lingo and a deep sense of conviction you can help but admire. In the great tradition of detective movies Shaft is clearly a hard-bitten loner who spars with friends and foe alike, then gets just what he wants from everyone.

Even though "Shaft" was an MGM release it was clearly intended for the black audience Hollywood had always ignored. The attitude of Shaft is what set it apart - it made no effort to court the white audience at all. John Shaft kept his mouth shut for nobody, and wasn't interested in carrying a civics lesson or being an ambassador from an alien race. He was openly promiscuous, keeping at least a couple of steady women on ... Read More:

VHS : Shaft Trilogy [1971]
This is the detective that needs no introduction, or very little at least, Shaft defined the blaxploitation films of the 70's. In the first film Shaft is hired by Bumpy the mobster to find his daughter. Through a series of jive talking scenes, savage beatings at the hand of Shaft he discovers the whereabouts of Bumpys offspring. Even if the film isn't to your tastes the amazing soundtrack by Isaac Hayes is worth the video price itself. The second of the trilogy is decidely weaker as a film but still scores as a blaxploitation classic. Unfortunately the soundtrack isn't anywhere near as good as the original. The third in the trilogy "Shaft in Africa" is poor, but still it's a "Shaft" movie and just with the name on the box alone it's worth getting. In this film ... Read More:
