The Bad Bunch
''The Bad Bunch'' is an American 1973 blaxploitation drama film directed by and co-starring Greydon Clark. Plot The film is a study of prejudice and discrimination. It tells the story of a black gang who run the streets of Watts and of Jim, a white man, who tries to befriend them. Prejudice stands in the way of any friendship and turns black against white in a mid '70s, does much to show how society has progressed, but to some it may seem that "the more things change, the more they stay the same." Release The film was released theatrically in the United States by Four Star International in 1973 and re-released by Dimension Pictures in 1976. The title was changed to ''Nigger Lover'' in some markets. Greydon Clark would explore racial themes further in his subsequent films ''Black Shampoo'' (1976) and ''Skinheads'' (1989). ''The Bad Bunch'' was released on a double feature DVD with Clark's ''Hi-Riders'' by VCI Home Entertainment in 2010. See also * List of American films of 1973 ...
