I find myself arriving at the end of this piece, reluctantly funny having to admit that maybe funny “Dead Presidents” doesn't have much to do with Blaxploitation. Most Blaxploitation films would have justified the action of their protagonists with some sort of Robin Hood level of morality. Most Blaxploitation films would have carried out their thesis in a comic book role reversal – all Black characters are “good,” all white character's “bad.” And most Blaxploitation films wouldn't have ended funny on such a downer. But “Dead Presidents” never betrays its path of taking a look at the issues of crime, war and race against the background of reality. A background where there's plenty of guilt to go around. So maybe you're right – maybe “Dead Presidents” doesn't have any business being in a blaxploitaion issue.
