Watching Scream Blacula Scream (1973)| Blacula is back and ready for revenge| Retro Rewatch

[@jait7578]

Now I feel like watching A Vampire in Brooklyn

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

My reaction to that is coming next week as long as it's not blocked 😒🤞🏾

[@texvor6949]

The scene where Blacula is correcting the expert on where the African artefact necklace really comes from is where Black Panther took the scene from when Killmonger corrects the white woman in the museum that the artifact is from wakanda and not nigeria.

[@jessediaz1293]

They should have made a third movie like “Bride of Blacula” where he finds his queen from the first one and my man gets to have a happy ending or “Blacula vs Dracula” where he finds and gets revenge from the vampire who turned him. I don’t know 😂 this was a missed opportunity. Reaction is always on point. Your edits killed me on this one 😂

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Yea, I hated that Mamuwalde never got to return to Africa, reconnect with his love (for eternity), or get revenge on Dracula's r8cist ass!!

[@bakercarl8518]

Right On, Right On !!!! Yes finally a Black Dracula. Love that movie poster.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

So many of these Blaxploitation posters have the same look. I am curious if it was the same person or company designing all of them? 🤔

[@texvor6949]

The pimp who got thrown into the window was also the husband of the cheating wife in J.D.'s Revenge . His name is Bob Minor and he is also a stunt man who has doubled for many famous black stars and actors in plenty of major films.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Is that him?!!! I didn't even realize that was the same actor

[@LordVolkov]

Blackula and SBS are so much fun. I love that his vampire face is mutton chops 🤣🤣🤣 And who doesn't love Pam Grier? She was my gateway to blacksploitation. For a couple of homages to Blackula - A Vampire In Brooklyn, with Eddie Murphy, and The House Next Door, with Mike Epps.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

It is hard to not love Pam Grier for sure! When I think of Blaxploitation, I think of Pam Grier for sure!

[@therealmarlonbellamy]

I watched this movie for the first time about a year ago & i enjoyed it.

[@RomansAlterEgo]

This my favorite out of the short franchise! Glad to see someone react to it

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

It was much better than I expected! I love that they knew to stop with this film and didn't ruin the franchise just for money with unnecessary sequels

[@MGillDesign]

48:00 I don't want a Blacula Reboot.... William Marshall (Blacula) is deceased, and can't be replaced... I'm sure they will mess it up.... My Blacula reboot is "Vampire in Brooklyn (1995)" lol....

[@texvor6949]

Right it sounds like a slave revenge movie but it says it will take place after scream blacula scream like its a continuation. Whatever i dont trust them to not mess it up.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

it sounds like it will be very political, and I am so tired of allegorical movies at this point.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

I want to be open minded but I agree. They will probably mess it up. Considering a cast hadn't been announced in November 2023, that by itself makes me side eye this project

[@texvor6949]

@@SistaGurlonFilms Yeah because they cant do that properly anymore. Blacula made its point in TWO scenes in two movies and went on the rest of the story. Blacula being manipulated by dracula taking advantage of his attempt to stop slavery because dracula wanted another victim then in the sequel how disgusted he was seeing how some are imitating what happened to the ancestors by doing it to our own. Which while good was also clever because that's exactly what blacula himself is doing turning people into vampires who become slaves to his will or command. Depth not lecture the whole story around it by people who dont know how to entertain and even write a story and characte on superficial issues.

[@jj10176]

They definitely need to make a remake for blacula his story is tragic because he just wanted to help his ppl and basically lost his wife 3 times and turned into a monster

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

You think they need a remake?!! His story is so tragic but I am afraid they will not do the story justice now days.

[@jj10176]

@@SistaGurlonFilms it would take the right actors and director they would probably have to base the story pre social media era too to give his character more mystique. They did remake superfly and that was from that blaxploitation era

awesome.the ended to sad.he just wanted to be free

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Exactly!!! He deserved to be free too 😔

7:28 "I know that shag haircut anywhere..." lol

😂😂😂 that silhouette is something else!

[@MGillDesign]

@@SistaGurlonFilms it was either Blacula or Theo Huxtable.... lol

[@MGillDesign]

11:09 love how Blacula starts playing "Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata" then, just like... screw it.... Blacula too bored to be bothered with that ish.... ...or, he just didn't know how to play the rest of the song. i'm guessing the 2nd... lol

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

The thought of him stopping just because he didn't know the rest of the song is HILARIOUS 😂😂😂

[@MGillDesign]

@@SistaGurlonFilms in all fairness, Blacula did pretty good, considering he was captured (at Castle Dracula in 1780), and Beethoven didn't compose this song until 1801... lol a plot error by the film... lol. which makes it funnier...

[@nicolesherman8974]

Off topic, but will you be covering more Pam Grier movies like Coffy, Sheba Baby, and Friday Foster? Would love to hear your thoughts on those movies.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

I definitely plan to do more Blaxploitation movies. I'll add these to the list!

[@LordVolkov]

​@@SistaGurlonFilmsPut Foxy Brown on that list please. Pam is a goddess. She also has a ton of 'women in prison' type movies that are all very bizarre 😅 but she was working hard around the world (most of them are shot in SE Asia)

[@dominicstclairstudios6324]

Blacula is my favorite vampire i like his personality very reminiscent of Dracula but also his own personality as well which makes him unique from the other vampires we seen

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Now that I've watched Blacula, I would have to say that Mamuwalde is my favorite vampire for sure

[@IssaSimma]

Funny reaction love your vids 😭😭💕 can’t wait for your vampire in Brooklyn reaction 🤍

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Thank you!!! If my lazy behind can get it together, Vampire in Brooklyn should be up Saturday or Sunday 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@texvor6949]

Forgot to mention, there is no real established vampire lore especially in movies and TV as they kept adding stuff to it. For example for a while it was said that if a vampire bites you on the left side of your neck you will die but if they bit you on the right side you will become one of them. But they have to drink all the blood if they dont then you end up like a ghoul like renfeld who is still human but not quite. As for Blacula bodies, that was what they added to it as it was never established how quick or long the turn happens just that it took time for them to rise and remember the police didnt get there straight away.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

True! It did take the police a while to get there! I forgot about that. And there are a lot of different Vampire rules, so it definitely can get a little murky from movie to movie lol

[@texvor6949]

@@SistaGurlonFilms Did you notice how slow the vampires were when they were around humans? With the exception of blacula, they were slow tryna kill their victims yet when we see willis with his girlfreind they move normally.

[@texvor6949]

The reason lisa flipped out was because she saw the other side of Blacula and what he looks like as a vampire where before she only saw him in his normal face. The ending loses me a bit too but i think because he was brought back and killed by voodoo he was trapped again in some kinda limbo which is what the red face in darkness symbioses.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

That makes sense but she still made me mad lol A voodoo curse loop sounds horrific! Or what if his undead soul was trapped inside the voodoo doll now?!

[@texvor6949]

@@SistaGurlonFilms Who knows for sure, i dunno why they never made a third film. Felt they could have done one.

[@texvor6949]

The girl who played wig i mean Gloria played by Janee Michelle was the lead in another black horror blaxploitation film called House on Skull Mountain from 1974. Its like a haunted house mystery film but with voodoo.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Ohhh!!! I have to write that one down too! Retro Rewatch is about to become mostly Blaxploitation at this point!

[@anthonyp1884]

What’s up Sista love that you do reactions on the old school movies

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

Heyyyy!!! I am really loving these old school movies

[@terrenceball6439]

Hi sis it was the 70's so during that time, it was a different mind set & atmosphere. So clowning this movie, I get it. But I loved this 🎥 though, but the original was better in my opinion. I got to get this film & the original Blacula on DVD. William Marshall was a very dignified actor, you can tell by his speech & diction as he speaks in this film, he did Shakespeare from what I understand #RIPSir

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

I could absolutely see him doing Shakespeare. He had such a commanding presence

[@MGillDesign]

@@SistaGurlonFilms yes, he was classically trained Shakespearean actor. And also, did Pee-Wee's playhouse.... lol. Showing his range, i guess.

[@texvor6949]

There were a lot of Broadway actors, Shakespearean trained actors and Negro Theatre actors in Blaxploitation films. Considered to be the best resource of acting training for black actors. The Negro Theatre as it was called had a lot of people come thru that.

[@texvor6949]

@@MGillDesign Most likely it was the only job he could get. A lot of black actors had to do things across the board because hollywood hardly used them, thats why you see a lot of greats doing TV to cartoons.

Thank you!

[@MGillDesign]

45:51 It's funny how we just casually call him "Blacula" like it ain't nothing... like it wasn't a derogatory name given to him, by Dracula... lol... At least Dracula could've been more original... Instead, he picked the easiest, sleaziest, stereotypical name he could... lol He really didn't like Mamuwalde... or blks in general 42:18 Heck...even Mamuwalde himself, was finally brainwashed into accepting that title... over his rightful tribal name.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

I think he took offense at the end because his vampire self is not who he really is so calling him Mamuwalde probably felt disrespectful. At least that's how I took it. Or maybe it was in that moment that he realized Mamuwalde was really dead and he finally accepted his fate of being Blacula.

[@MGillDesign]

@@SistaGurlonFilms great points. Yeah, he did seem more self-aware at that point... and less Blacula, but because like you said, he realized Mamuwalde was gone (for good) because of Lisa... He gave up the ghost. Lisa was a h8ter....lol... just because Mamuwalde turned all ashy... she got scared, and took him out.

[@MGillDesign]

43:45 Sista Gurl (seeing credits) initially confused... then... starts jamming... 44:05 When all else fails, start dancin...' that's gotten blk folks through so much...lol ...But in all seriousness, I love this song, it's on youtube as well, the lyrics are so powerful & tragic... Blacula is in torment... and just wanted freedom... I was shocked that the singer of this song is whyyte.... always thought it was a brother. Especially when he says "Free---dommmm....Freee---eeeeeee----dommmmmmm!!!!" 45:18 ..you can't tell me that ain't a brother...

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

I was so mad at the ending but the music throughout this movie was jamming! That freedom definitely gave struggle!!! These "blue eyed soul" artists trick me every time 😂😂

[@texvor6949]

Article was wack, no one considers Blacula as the first blaxploitation film, its Sweet Back's Badass song that is considered the first along with Shaft as the second blaxploitation film both released in 1971. Blacula came out in 1972 and was the first blaxploitation horror film.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

I had never heard that Blacula was the first Blaxploitation film. That definitely confused me.

[@texvor6949]

Glad you liked it and i was there with you but with a fist up when he told off those pimps about what they were doing is destructive to our people. And people dismiss blaxploitation movies as being stupid cheap and awful. Some are like any genre has its bad films but most were good to great they had original ideas/ concepts or they had something to say about social conditions.

[@SistaGurlonFilms]

So far, all the Blaxploitation movies we've watched have been really good! I know I'm going to run into some bad ones eventually, but so far so good

[@petermartinez3875]

Hey Sista, I never watched all the Blacula movies but I heard about them tho but he was kinda creepy!! Can you react to Blade (1998)? Wesley Snipes was so badass as a half vampire/warrior!! I hope you had a nice Sunday

@@SistaGurlonFilms Yes, it's a slow-burner, BUT, there are 2 Blaxploitation movies that are a must-see!... 1. "THE THING WITH TWO HEADS" 1972. It's about a black man on death row that agrees to have an extra head transplanted on his body. The problem is the head belongs to a very rich, very bigoted, old white man. HILARIOUS!! 2. "ABBY" 1974. The producers almost titled this one as "THE BLACKSORCIST". Enough said. Lol. I think that they are both here on YT. Btw, I love watching your reaction vids.
