For years Strode, a former Los Angeles Ram, has hovered on the periphery of films waiting for a movie adequate to his talents. He is still marking time.

Black Jesus is that increasingly rare thing, a really awful movie.

Product Description:
The just, charismatic leader of a mid-Saharan African country (Woody Strode) falls from power after being betrayed by a political associate. The coup d'etat includes his martyrdom at the hands of his corrupt, imperialistic successors. A fictionalization of actual events in the Congo, the story paints a broad portrait of injustice and corruption.
