Whether classic like Foxy Brown, Coffy or Cooley High or more modern films also known as "hood" movies like State Property, Belly, Juice, Menace II Society and the like......

can anyone recommend any films in this genre that are available on Blu-Ray?

I have Belly, will be getting Friday soon as well as Menace II Society but was wondering if anyone knew of any others with Blu-Ray releases

Are any of the great blacksploitation films from the 1970s already out or coming soon to Blu-ray disc ? Black Dynamite is the only 'legitimate' one I own on Blu-ray disc, it would be nice to have a few more.

Foxy Brown is out in the UK and Coffy is coming out soon. Region B locked, unfortunately. Truck Turner is coming out in July in the US, that is a good one.

There's a thread for blaxploitation on BD here.

Shaft. It's been out for a couple of years. Can you dig it?

Also, Across 110th Street and Cotton Comes to Harlem from Kino Lorber Studio Classics.

More coming soon, including Truck Turner. See NoirFan's blaxsploitation thread linked in his post above.
