Sugar Hill (1974)

The movie has a very dark yet thoughtful feel to it. Wesley Snipes plays his role with a warm compassion for those around him.

Sugar Hill stars the delectable Marki Bey as Diana 'Sugar' Hill, foxy girlfriend of Langston, owner of the successful Club Haiti. When Langston is kicked to death by a gang of thugs for refusing to sell his business to greedy gangster Morgan (Robert Quarry), Sugar enlists the help of wizened voodoo priestess Mama Maitresse (Zara Cully) to avenge her man, summoning voodoo Lord of the Dead Baron Samedi (Don Pedro Colley) and an army of silver-eyed zombies to terrorise and kill those responsible.

I enjoyed this movie even though I don't like voodoo flicks. It was a fun spin in a genre that came in and out in the blink of any eye.
