373 Sugar Hill ( 1974 )
This is a solid but very predictable blaxploitation revenge thriller using zombies. The fashions on display are actually the scariest thing about it.
Diana "Sugar " Hill witnesses the killing of her boyfriend by thugs working on behalf of Morgan ( Robert Quarry ). She consults a voodoo priestess ( Zara Cully ) who raises an army of zombies with which to exact Sugar's revenge.
Marki Bey ( as Sugar )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
Marki had already made her name in blaxploitation pictures and worked in TV after this one, having a semi-regular role in Starsky and Hutch. She retired at the end of the seventies and now runs murder mystery cruises in L.A. She is now 71.
Betty Anne Rees ( as Celeste )
Sex : Celeste is Morgan's mistress
Death : Taken into the netherworld by the zombies
Betty worked mainly in TV from the mid-sixties to the end of the seventies.
Judy Hanson ( as Masseuse )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
This was Judy's first acting role in a short career in the seventies.
