As Above, So Below (1973) review

Former Marine Jita-Hadi (Nathaniel Taylor) is back in California after spending time fighting overseas (he mentions being in the Dominican Republic and Vietnam) and then is recruited to be part of radical leftist group - elsewhere, detective Pee Wee (Billy Middleton) complains about "bad African Americans" and sings the praises of the "White Man."  This medium-length effort from L.A.-based filmmaker Clark (not the director of Teenage Caveman) brings up two important topics - how soldiers were disillusioned returning home following the war in 'Nam and also the rage black individuals felt towards America (and probably still do, judging by the protests over the murder of George Floyd) - but it looks and sounds like a very crude student production (the equipment he used isn't optimal) that seems to be unfinished and/or fragments of a much longer project that are randomly taped together.  The righteous anger is tangible, however, and those with an interest in underground cinema from the seventies might want to take a peek.
