Pam Grier plays the titular character in the 1975 blaxploitation film Sheba, Baby. Sheba Shayne is a private eye, and former cop, who returns to her hometown of Louisville to fight off mobsters who have been threatening her father and his insurance business. With the help of her father’s business partner, played by Austin Stoker (Assault on Precinct 13), Sheba kicks gangster butt and tries to find out who is really behind the much bigger, citywide shakedown. William Girdler, of Abby and Grizzly fame, directs a film that’s so action packed it will leave you gobsmacked! Come see Pam Grier bust a cap in the mob’s rear in Sheba, Baby!
