Incluvie Classics - 'Ganja & Hess'
'Ganja & Hess' is a 1973 experimental horror film, written and directed by the visionary auteur Bill Gunn. It was meant to be a straightforward blaxploitation film – but director Gunn had grander ambitions.

Because the small theater is constantly lacking the necessary money, the two completely untalented amateurs Elena and Rossella are involved. Rossella's husband Paolo, an ex-railwayman, drinks like a fish and takes the rest of his meager pension to hookers. Whether she likes it or not, she has to get him through with her "work". Elena's husband Marco, on the other hand, always has money. He deals drugs and thus enables her to pursue her passion for acting, but in return she has to get fucked by his "business partners" every now and then. Franco, one of the theatre's last patrons, shamelessly uses his position of power to use the bodies of the young actresses for the good of the theatre. He lends them to solvent "sponsors" for cash.

The assassins in Bullet Train are quirky, deadly, and diverse. Yet, they all seem to be some type of caricature. While the movie is fun and action-packed, it’s also packed with stereotypes that don’t make for the best representation.
