amused"Part man. Part street. 100% kosher."
The Hebrew Hammer, jokingly described by the director as the first "Jewsploitation" film. (The cast even includes Mario & Melvin Van Peebles; the latter playing, of course, Sweetback.)
Basic plot: A Jewish superhero must save Hanukkah from Santa Claus' evil son, Damien Claus, who wants to force everyone to celebrate Christmas.

"If you're in trouble...and you're a Jew...and it's not past Sundown on Friday...you should call 'The Hebrew Hammer!'"
"Attention, all K-Mart shoppers, there are Jews in Aisle 12."
How can I have never heard of a movie that features Mario Van Peebles playing "Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim", the leader of "The Kwanzaa Liberation Front"?
