JD's
Revenge 8/10
“I
do know that my baby say's I beat her up and I don't even remember.”
“Don't
worry about it she gon' be back!”
This
is the type of movie I was watching. I expected far more cheese from
this movie J.D's Revenge and once again I ended up watching an actual movie. I
would consider this a crazy ass mixture of a Doctor Jekyll/ghost
movie. It starts with a flashback to the 1940's and this gangster
named J.D Walker who watches his woman get murdered and then he gets
shot to death. We then go to the 1970's and this college student that
drives cabs on the side named Isaac who also drives cabs on the side
in New Orleans goes on a date with his wife and gets pulled up on
stage to go under hypnosis. While under he somehow has the spirit of
J.D enter his body. They go dancing at the club and he starts
sweating his ass off and this begins many moments of me wanting his
wife to either force him to go to the doctor or phone a friend. He
goes home and rests and by rests I mean he has nightmares of J.D's
murder.
Isaac
talks to his friend about feeling bad and his friend says it is
stress from all the work and studying he's doing. Isaac starts seeing
J.D in the mirror and his dreams get worse. His lady is like “Give
me some of that dick!” and he says he doesn't feel well. She tries
this a few times. One day J.D takes over and he sexually assaults
her. They make it look sort of gray but, no. Meanwhile one of the
guys that was there when he was killed is now a preacher. Also the
man that actually did the killing is there and there is a daughter
that looks like J.D's woman that was killed because she was her
mother. J.D starts giving the daughter the eyes and J.D is starting
to take over even harder. He even ends up taking an old lady for a
crazy ass ride and dumps her on the side of the road.
Isaac
buys a hat like the one J.D used to wear. One day she comes home and
this fool has permed his hair! It looks terrible. His wife mocks it
as she should and he tries to assault her again and she busts a
bottle over his head. She meets with her ex husband who is a cop and
he wants to beat Isaac's ass. She defends Isaac which makes zero
sense. Isaac finds her on the bus and tries to apologize and she is
not having any of it. She later comes to his place while he is
showering and everything seems fine until J.D takes over again! Oh,
there is one part where J.D shows up at a club and meets this woman
and she takes him to her home. They have what she says is the best
sex ever and then her man shows up. J.D don't care. Her man knows
something is up and comes at J.D/Isaac who slices the shit out of him
with his straight razor. He leaves taking their car and the cops are
on his ass now. J.D goes to confront his old enemies and say to meet
him at the slaughterhouse. They oblige. One dude wants the spirit out
of Isaac and the other guy is like “Sure...I'll just bring this
gun. To talk.”
At the
slaughterhouse everyone airs their shit out. The guy with the gun
killed J.D and his wife who was the sister of the now pastor. The
pastors daughter shows up and the three of them struggle for it while
J.D laughs his ass off Joker style. The bad guy is killed, the cops
show up, J.D/Isaac is arrested, and then set free. Happen ending,
right? I am not making this sound as nuts as it was. Yes, there is
some lady nudity. There is a sexual assault. Or two. There is lots of
ketchup blood. There is a cow being sliced open at the neck which
looks pretty damn real. Crazy ass movie and I am surprised that I had
never heard of this until stumbling upon it on Amazon.
