Plot

One of the better (and more intelligent) "blaxploitation" movies, with Pam Grier ("Jackie Brown") as Coffy, a nurse who discovers her little sister is in the hopeless grip of drug addiction. Swiftly annihilating the pusher responsible, Coffy decides to go right to the top of the chain, using the sexual situations she's forced into to her own advantage. Action-packed.
