TICK...TICK...TICK...

title: tick...tick...tick...
year: 1970
cast: Jim Brown, George Kennedy, Don Stroud, Mills Watson
rating: *1/2

Imagine, if you will, the plot of BLAZING SADDLES: a newly elected black Sheriff unwanted in a town full of redneck racists. Now imagine it without any humor or purpose other than to show how horrible white people are down South. Whitesploitation at its worst. Some good actors are in it but none're acting too good. Although I do like the title, which is, ironically, the sound coming from what perfectly describes this movie.
