Overview

This Double Blockbuster DVD from Paramount Home Entertainment features two high-stakes Hollywood thrillers starring Samuel L. Jackson.

The second film is the hard-hitting action-thriller Shaft, where Jackson takes on the role of the legendary detective John Shaft to bring a racist killer (Christian Bale) to justice in a world of corrupt cops and ruthless drug lords.
