Mitchell (1975)

In the gritty urban sprawl of 1975, Joe Don Baker embodies Mitchell, a rough-edged cop with a penchant for life's darker pleasures. Underneath his tough exterior and a belly that bears testament to his love for Schlitz, Mitchell is a man of unwavering principle. His world, bathed in the lurid glow of the illicit, is populated by ruthless criminals and a high-class prostitute girlfriend who dances on the razor's edge of his tolerance. Mitchell's latest challenge is a twisted labyrinth of power and corruption. His targets: a formidable crime boss, a nest of venomous drug smugglers, and a businessman whose hands are stained with the blood of a murdered burglar. Despite the risks, Mitchell is determined to bring his foes to justice, even if it means staking his own life in this high-stakes game. This obscure action crime drama, once hidden in the shadows of cinematic history, was catapulted into notoriety when it was hilariously dissected and riffed on by the cult comedy show, Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1988). Their lively banter transformed Mitchell into a legendary figure, ensuring this film's place in the annals of infamous cinema. Mitchell is a rollercoaster ride of action and intrigue, a cinematic experience that will leave you questioning the boundaries of law, morality, and just how much Schlitz one cop can drink.
