You have to dig three pages into Google to get a synopsis (by Roger Ebert) that actually tells you what this movie is about, and understand why, when I first read a plot description at a now defunct website, I thought it must be a hoax:
The tycoon, who sports a white moustache and beard curiously reminiscent of the young Col. Sanders (assuming he was ever young), fronts as a benefactor of the black community. But inside his Southern plantation he has other plans afoot. He’s invented a mysterious machine that will turn out exact replicas of black leaders, who can then be programmed to follow the evil tycoon’s nefarious schemes and eat lots of his ribs ‘n’ chicken.

What’s funny is, it sounds like one of those literally urban legends that black folks spread about how the CIA invented crack, all the while ignoring the real source of addiction in their midst!
