This is the story of Jimmy Bones / Black as night and hard as stone / Gold-plated deuce like the King of Siam / Got a switchblade loose and a diamond on his hand / They took his life, he never rested in peace / Now his vengeance will be unleashed. Now twenty-two years after his murder, Jimmy Bones (Snoop Dogg) is back and hungry for revenge. Director Ernest Dickerson stylishly crafts a gothic horror tale that’s ripe for rediscovery, combining moody cinematography, maggot-spewing gore, a killer hip hop soundtrack, and a stellar cast that includes Pam Grier, Clifton Powell, and Ginger Snaps’ Katharine Isabelle.
