Interracial Sex Havoc #11: 1996 – 1997

The Interracial Sex Havoc project is a reviews selection of films that contain at least one interracial sex scene. I am focusing on regular films (both independent and major studios productions), but select adult films are also included. The present chapter is about movies released from 1996 to 1997. I reviewed many goodies, including a Jon Voight film and a Russell Crowe flick. So, enjoy!


Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood (1996)

Ashtray [Shawn Wayans from White Chicks (2004)] lives in the hood but he doesn’t like the violence and poverty that comes with it and he wants to fall in love and move away. He meets Dashiki [Tracey Cherelle Jones from Baby Boy (2001)] who is a psychotic single mother with 7 kids that seem to be from many ex-boyfriends. There is also a black activist who is has sex with a white girl or two but we see none of that; it is implied though as a shot of a moving vehicle suggests intercourse.


This is essentially a parody of all the “hood” movies that were popular in the mid-‘90s and although it is insanely hilarious as a satire (benefiting by exaggerating stereotypes), it also works as a genuine comedy. This is because director Paris Barclay [who you may know from his TV work] throws everything in and it somehow manages to stick successfully. It was budgeted at $3.8 million and it grossed more than $20 million which means that audiences liked it too.
