Mark Radulich and Jason Teasley dive into the 1973 blaxploitation classic Coffy, starring Pam Grier. This episode unpacks Coffy as a layered feminist revenge fantasy that outperforms many modern heroines. We explore Jack Hill’s direction, the film’s political undercurrents, and why Coffy’s character arc still resonates today — especially when compared to flat modern protagonists like Rey and Captain Marvel. This is the film that launched Pam Grier and redefined badassery.

🖤 Tight script. Gritty realism. Real stakes.
🎯 From naive nurse to justice-dealing queen.
🎬 If you care about cinema, Coffy is required viewing.
