A Poorly Made Low-Budget Movie
Uriah4328 July 2020
This film begins with a notorious mob boss in Dallas by the name of "Fleetwood Deville" (Charles Buchanan) summoning one of his assassins by the name of "Devay Devine" (Heather McCormick) to find a female sorceress named "Jayde Kelley" (Jayde Kelley) who has placed a curse upon him which he desperately wants removed. The problem is that in order to get to her, Devay has to work around another mob boss named "Marc Mercedes" (Martin Ezelle). Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a poorly made low-budget film which suffered from inconsistent audio volume, dreadful acting, bad scripts and amateur camera work. Admittedly, there were a couple of supporting actors like Derrick Pointer and Kenneth Duane who showed some potential in their role as guards but other than that there wasn't really wasn't much here to recommend to other viewers and for that reason I have rated it accordingly.

My uncle is a good bad man

Warning: Spoilers
In Dallas, crime boss Fleetwood Deville (Charles Buchanan) is opposed by another pimp Marc Mercedes (Martin Ezelle)...and the writing doesn't get any better. It seems a prostitute (Jayde Kelley) has changed Fleetwood's manhood into a snake for being a bad actor and unable to deliver his lines. Fleetwood employs Devay Devine (Heather McCormick) former prostitute and now a hit-man to kill a guy and capture the girl and bring her back. That is basically the plot, but we go through a maze to get there complete with boring flashbacks.

The acting was horrible. Charles Buchanan has been banished from films after his performance. Heather McCormick had trouble keeping a straight face. She at least knew this was cheesy. The dialogue was idiotic. The sound was uneven having hollow places. The picture had a hip-hop soundtrack that seemed out of place. And who shoots a voodoo film in Dallas when New Orleans is so close? Guide: F-word, sex talk, sex, and nudity (Jayde Kelley- early scene)

Horribly cheap

Warning: Spoilers
THE TALE OF THE VOODOO PROSTITUTE is a horribly cheap-looking blaxploitation indie horror in which the title really does speak for itself. The story is about a pair of rival criminals and the women they use in their bid to take down the competition. I was hoping for some serious voodoo content but you won't find any here; instead this is all about rubbish photography and actors so amateurish that they're actually smirking and laughing while being filmed.
