“Dolemite Is My Name And Fuckin’ Up Muthafuckas Is My Game”
Posted by Ross Rosenberg
Behold, the trailer for the blaxploitation classic Dolemite. Rudy Ray Moore stars as the titular Dolemite: pimp, kung-fu master, and all around badass. The trailer’s combination of Moore rhyming like a foul mouthed Dr. Seuss and footage of Dolemite striking an attacker, causing him to jump into the trunk of a car, or surrounded by a bevy of deadly, afroed hos sums up the film perfectly.
(Clip is NSFW not so much for, what can be described as, copious use of the word “muthafucka” but for a single, naked breast. Thankfully, said mammary does not belong to Moore.)

I remember being mildly surprised when I found out there actually had been a series of Dolemite movies back in the day. My previous exposure had been limited to the series of Mad TV sketches from back when the show could be worth watching.
Come to think of it, this might be the first actual Dolemite footage I’ve ever seen.

Mike - I assure you, it exists and it is brilliant. You owe it to yourself to see this movie.
