Hell in a Handbasket

A few people have recommended a movie entitled Dead Presidents (1995). "Since you are into guns, you should like this movie!"

The film is a period drama that takes place in the 1970's. It follows a black American as he serves in Vietnam, comes home, and then turns to crime to support his family.

I haven't seen the film yet because I haven't put any effort into seeking it at my local video store. Although the people who suggested I see it did so because they thought I would enjoy the action scenes, I also heard that there was a lot of social commentary concerning issues that cropped up in the 1970's. I already lived through that decade, I certainly don't need to be reminded about how it was.

Another thing that gave me pause is how one of the stars is funny man Chris Tucker, playing it straight in a grim drama. There was always just something a bit off putting about that piece of casting, and so I have never moved the title up to the front of the list of things I want to see.

I'm talking endlessly about a movie I haven't seen because Legion's Fate has posted a review of the guns used in the movie. It is worth your time, and Ctone's strong endorsement of the film might finally motivate me to giving it a look see.

Go ahead and click that last link. Even if you don't intend to see the film, there is plenty of good gun pr0n.
