I have been getting emails asking me to comment on the Quentin Tarantino reboot of Django in his new movie Django Unchained. I already did, months ago. Below is the link for the interested parties now that there is so much discussion of Jamie Foxx’s comments going on.
My view on the Django phenomenon also included a look at ALL the 1960’s, 1970’s and 1980’s Django flicks plus my tongue-in-cheek biography of Django.
It all started, however, with the review where I examined the original Django and two blaxploitation westerns about a former slave blowing away former Confederates in the Wild West.

Great! I remembered when you first posted this but I forgot after all this time!
Thanks!
Wild stuff at ur blog as always! I never heard of the original Django movie or those 2 blackstation movies that came before Django Unchained.
I’m always glad to share these things!
Too cool! Interesting to read about the original Django and those Nigger Charley movies.
Thanks! I’m glad you liked the article!
You were right on the cutting edge again with your reviews!
Thanks!
The original Django sounds better than the remake.
In my opinion it IS better. And I think The Legend of Nigger Charley was a ballsier movie than Django Unchained given the time period that it came out.
