seanmoliver64 Incredibly hilarious mid-70's Italian Rootsploitation with lots of non-consensual S&M, lesbian sex, gratuitous racial cruelty etc...Few redeeming cinematic qualities, except for the fairly cool theme music with dubby "African" drums and flute. Brilliant sample dialog: White Slave Owner (to White Plantation Manager): "You're so dumb, I'll bet you forgot to interrogate that n****r midwife!"White Plantation Manager: "Not only did I interrogate her, I did it so well she died before I could get any answers from her!"All the black actors have 70's afros, and say "yes, massa" in a high-pitched voice. The female lead has sex with everybody on the plantation. 10 Stars for fans of tasteless sleaze.

lastliberal Trading on the success of the 1975 hit, this film is a cheaply made story of a plantation where Massa gets down with the slave women, and the Missus gets down with the big black stud, and with massa'a son also. In fact, there is so much getting down going on, that I really don't know why anyone bothered to get dressed.So, if you want to see white women rolling their naked bodies all over tied up slaves, or you just like a movie with tits on display every five minutes, then this one is for you.There is a funny/sad story in here, but it only comes at the very end so as to not interfere with all the hot sweaty sex going on on the plantation.

Dr. Gore *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*I bought this one for five bucks at my local video store. The cover has a white woman embracing a black man while he's chained up. Did someone order a sleaze sandwich? Yes sir! "Mandinga" is an Italian rip-off of "Mandingo" that is hot and ready to eat.As the movie begins, we see life on the plantation: Slaves getting whipped, slaves talking back and then promptly getting whipped. Lots of whipping. A white woman is lectured about how she should never lower herself and have sexual relations with a slave. Then she immediately has sex with a slave. The slave is chained up so she jumps on him. Well, at least the video box cover didn't lie. Soon the white man running the plantation has sex with a chained up slave woman. This is all in the first fifteen minutes. So besides interracial slave sex, what else does this movie have on it's mind? Not much. The plantation owner's son comes back from England. He is going to run the plantation and have sex. He falls for the local preacher's daughter and some family drama happens. More chained up slaves have sex with their masters. All in all, I counted about eight sex scenes. There is a nice, sordid vibe running through "Mandinga". I would bet there is another, harder version of this flick running around. But even this version was pretty strong for softcore. I can only recommend this one to the most fervent admirers of B-sleaze. Everyone else should avoid.

dwpollar 1st watched 3/17/2002 - 2 out of 10(Dir-Mario Pinzauti): Silly, sex-filled master & slave having too many intimate relations movie. This movie seemed to care more about the sex than the story and kind of worked the story around the sex. Laughable dubbing of the original Italian language in the version I watched with ridiculous ending where the attempt is made to give an anti-slave statement(or should I say one line). What a waste of time for everyone who watches this trash.
