Nothing says good clean raunchy fun like Rudy Ray Moore, also known as the legendary blaxploitation hero DOLEMITE! Rudy started his career as an R&B singer (and a darn good one, we might add), but became truly known for pushing the boundaries of good taste with his hilarious profanity-filled comedy routines (his version of The Aristocrats can probably never be told). Then in the 70s he morphed again into the super-hero Dolemite, who fought da man in a series of hilarious and fun independently made action films.

A major influence on many of today’s comedians and hip-hop artists (some say he started rap with his rhyming comic patter), Rudy Ray Moore joins us IN PERSON with his own blend of comedy, music, and our favorite of his Dolemite films, THE HUMAN TORNADO.

In his second film, the rappin', snappin', action packin' Dolemite lets loose with a whirlwind tour-de-kick-ass! After Dolemite gets caught in bed with a racist sheriff's wife, he and his posse go on a cross country run. Along the way Dolemite does it all: he escapes naked down a hill; he changes jumpsuits, he fights off sucka hick cops; he busts rhymes and does stand up. Finally, he and his crew land in California just in time to help his old friend Queen Bee save her club (and her well-endowed girls) from a mafia plot to muscle her out.
