Tonight at midnight on IFC.From 1976: 3 black veterans return from vietnam and fight the KKK."See them avenge the death of a Brother, the rape of a sister, and the murder of their only honky friend..." From IMDB:"Final notes: (1) I felt guilty about the fact that the thick funk song used to signify the Klan's approach was so incredibly catchy that I had trouble keeping myself from dancing in my seat. (2) The actors playing the Klansmen look awfully convincing, lending some real tension to some scenes - particularly the rape sequence (that looks like it was filmed in the same "jungle" that stood in for Vietnam). (3) Why do the signs advertising the Klan in the film call it the "KKKK"? Why the bonus K? "I will be DVR-ing this!!!

    The incredibly offensive Johnny Reb records of the 60's had a song "Kajun Ku Klux Klan" which may explain the 4 K's.

    Amazingly most of the Johnny Reb catalog is available on Youtube.

    I saw this last year, IFC has played it a few times. Pretty good and a nice soundtrack to boot.
