After his brother is killed, the baddest soul brother in town, Black Dynamite, vows to clean up the streets by taking down a conspiracy that leads from the ghetto to the top of the government. His mission targets a mysterious new malt liquor and a plot to keep the black community down. The film is a spot-on parody of 1970s Blaxploitation films, complete with funky music, outrageous action, and deliberate filmmaking "mistakes."
