Blast! takes Oscar Williams’ 1972 drama The Final Comedown, starring Billy Dee Williams as a Black Panther-esque radical, and reworks it with explosive new scenes directed by New Bev fave Allan Arkush. When an unqualified white man is hired for the job to which he applied, Billy Dee Williams gets badder & madder than ever, and launches a violent revolution. Blast will blow you away!
