Rifftrax: The Guy From Harlem is a curious blend of action and comedy, steeped in the unique vibes of blaxploitation. The pacing feels off-kilter, adding a certain charm as you watch this 2012 riffing take on the 1977 original. The performances, especially from Harry De Bauld, are a wild mix of earnestness and over-the-top antics, making it hard not to chuckle at the absurdity. It’s one of those films that revels in its own quirks, with practical effects that sometimes miss the mark but contribute to its offbeat atmosphere. The humor, laced with a touch of nostalgia, might just resonate with collectors who appreciate the oddities of genre cinema. Definitely a film that stands out in the Rifftrax lineup.
