Blaxploitation

I was quite surprised today to meet a kid (less than 20) who was actually familiar with the Blaxploitation films of the 80s. In particular, we were talking and laughing about I'm Gonna Get You Sucka, in which the hero's brother succumbed to an early death by "overgold." Of course, nobody knows how he actually died, but it seemed to have something to do with the piles and piles of gold chains he was addicted to collecting. It was just pretty cool to talk to a young person who knew a movie that was older than my kids.
