Truck Turner

Truck Turner, also known as Black Bullet,[3] is a 1974 American blaxploitation film, starring Isaac Hayes and Yaphet Kotto, and directed by Jonathan Kaplan.

The screenplay was written by Michael Allin, Leigh Chapman (under a pseudonym, Jerry Wilkes), and Oscar Williams.

[4] The film was released by American International Pictures as a double feature with Foxy Brown.

Mack "Truck" Turner (Hayes) is a former professional football player who becomes a Los Angeles–based bounty hunter after an injury.

Truck visits his girlfriend, Annie (Annazette Chase), who is in jail and wants to leave LA when released.

Truck does not feel sober enough after a night of partying, so he calls Jerry, who dies in Blue's ambush.

Truck gives Nate Jerry's gun for protection, and then they shoot Blue's goons when they burst in.

[5] Kaplan says the film was written for Lee Marvin, Robert Mitchum, or Ernest Borgnine.

[7] The Los Angeles Times called it "an extraordinary visual experience... as successfully surreal as Point Blank.

"[8] In 2004, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Queen Latifah's production company, Flavor Unit Entertainment, attempted to remake the film, which was to have been written by Chris Frisina.
