Factoids on this blaxploitation classic: was Ossie Davis' Directorial debut & also Redd Foxx's only credited acting role in a feature film. Filmed on location in Harlem, New York. Based on the 1965 novel by Chester Himes.

Plot:
Gravedigger Jones and Coffin Ed Johnson are two black cops with a reputation for breaking the odd head. Both are annoyed at the success of the Reverend Deke O'Mailey who is selling trips back to Africa to the poor on the installment plan. When his truck is hijacked and a bale of cotton stuffed with money is lost in the chase, Harlem is turned upside down by Gravedigger and Coffin Ed, the Reverend, and the hijackers. Much of the humor is 60's urban black.
