Description:
She's the ultimate tough and sexy heroine. She's Soul Cinema superstar Pam Grier, and whether delivering her justice with a shotgun, a razor or just her bare hands, she doesn't miss a beat in this 'smashing, no-holds-barred tale of retaliation' (Variety)! Nobody ever commandeered the screen quite like Pam Grier...and Coffy 'couldn't be better! [It's] one of the most entertaining movies ever made'(Quentin Tarantino)! Grier is Coffy, nurse by day and avenging angel by night. When she discovers that her little sister has been doped upand freaked outby a greedy drug pusher, she not only puts an end to his miserable days, but she vows to follow his trail of corruption up to the topthe very top. But what Coffy doesn't realize is that all is not as it seemsand that the leafy green behind the pushers' scene just may come from someone she knows!
Amazon.com:
In the opening minutes of Coffy, Pam Grier's star-making role, she blasts the skull of a sleazy drug pusher into pulp like a watermelon and shoots his junkie assistant with an overdose of heroin. Jack Hill knows how to open a movie, and he never lets up on the down-and-dirty action. Coffy is an emergency room nurse by day and vigilante by night, targeting the dealers who made her sister a comatose junkie. She works her way up to the Italian mobsters muscling into the ghetto drug trade while she's romanced by glib, smooth-talking politician Booker Bradshaw and wooed by nice-guy cop William Elliot, whose refusal to sell out to the corrupt force earns him a crippling beating.
There's plenty of sex, a catty girl-fight that leaves the losers topless, and car chases and shootouts galore, but what makes Coffy a blaxploitation classic is Grier's Amazonian presence and fiery charisma, and the gritty, low-budget action scenes marked by visceral, wincing violence. Mob strong-arm Sid Haig (Spider Baby) cackles while dragging his victim (a strutting peacock pimp played by Nashville's Robert DoQui) behind a speeding car in a sadistic lynching, and Grier runs down one bad guy with a speeding car and takes care of another with a shotgun to the groin. Hill had previously directed Grier in The Big Doll House and The Big Bird Cage. Their next and last picture together, Foxy Brown, was originally written as the sequel to Coffy. --Sean Axmaker

WHOA! The hottest of the hot. It's Coffy!
Blistering action, unbridled suspense, nerve-wracking energy, and an abundance of beautiful barenaked ladies. What more can you ask for?
Tough as nails, mad as a hornet, and as sexy as yours truly, Coffy embarks on a chaotic estrogen-erupting revenge rampage after some drug pushers dope up her little sister.
Film god/geek Quentin Tarantino calls this "one of the most entertaining movies ever made". He ain't B.S.'n. ... Read More

This is one of my favorite movies. Coffy is a nurse by day and a vigilante by night, seeking revenge on the drug dealers who turned her twelve-year-old sister into a junkie.
Technically this movie falls into a genre known as blaxploitation, low-budget films of the early 1970's with the main characters being played by black actors, but this movie was one of the higher quality films of the genre, and Coffy transformed Pam Grier into an international movie star.

I loved it, but then again I love every action flick Pam Grier has ever done. She is one bad to bone female is this action packed film. You will be enthralled by this no-nonsense heroine. Check this out!

All the good I'd read about this flick is true. This one really smokes. Great action/ fight scenes and Pam Grier is one helluva woman. Highly recommended.

Pam Grier was one tough cookie in this classic 70's drama. I wouldn't have wanted her to come looking for me if i was a drug dealer. The way she blew that pimp's face off with that shot gun early on in the movie was real gangsta. Boy, somebody shouldn't have never gave her little sister drugs. This is if not her best movie in my opinion. I also loved Foxy Brown and Friday Foster as well.
