After a series of violent, sexy blaxploitation films like
Coffy and
Foxy Brown,
Pam Grier returned in this more sedate PG-rated actioner. Grier plays Chicago P.I. Sheba Shayne, who returns to her hometown of Louisville, Kentucky to save her father's loan business from vicious gangsters.
Austin Stoker co-stars with
D'Urville Martin (
Dolemite) and
Charles Kissinger, who appeared in all of director
William Girdler's films. Highlights include a chase through a carnival funhouse, but without the usual exploitation elements, there's little to recommend this film except for Grier completists.
