Sugar Hill [1974]

PHYSICAL MEDIA: Blu-ray

DIRECTOR: Paul Maslansky

WRITER: Tim Kelly, Don Pedro Colley

PRINCIPAL CAST: Marki Bey, Robert Quarry, Don Pedro Colley, Betty Anne Rees

SYNOPSIS: When mobsters kill the owner of the exotic Club Haiti (Larry Don Johnson), girlfriend Diana “Sugar” Hill (Marki Bey) calls upon a voodoo priestess Mama Maitresse (Zara Cully) to enact justice. Together, they summon lord of the underworld Baron Samedi (Don Pedro Colley) who resurrects from the bayou a squad of silver-eyed, cobwebbed zombies to perform Diana’s bidding. Released by American International Pictures in the hopes of repeating the success of Blacula (1972), Sugar Hill (1974) has overshadowed its blaxploitation horror predecessor and become a grindhouse classic. Sporting a low-cut white jumpsuit and crowned with an iconic afro, Marki Bey’s Sugar is an unforgettable figure of revengeamatic cinema, growing increasingly diabolical and bloodthirsty as she carries out her elaborate and uncompromising vengeance.

Special Features:

  • Audio commentary by Film Historians Howard S. Berger, Steve Mitchell, and Nathaniel Thompson
  • Audio commentary by director Paul Maslansky
  • Interviews with Actors Don Pedro Colley, Richard Lawson, Charles Robinson, and Director Paul Maslansky
