It help made the genre go mainstream.

It help made the genre go mainstream. Same here. Iconic? Sure. A good movie? Not really. Title: Re: SHAFT (1971) Post by: Allhallowsday on November 28, 2021, 11:16:41 PM ... A good movie? Not really. Like I said, enjoyable bull-crap. :thumbup: Title: Re: SHAFT (1971) Post by: RCMerchant on November 29, 2021, 02:30:57 AM COFFY is my favorite as well. The MACK is a close second.
