Countryman Reviews
A real surprise
Years ago I had the VHS version of this delightful film. Many playings (and mucho ganja) engraved this gem on my brain. So what happened? I gave it to a friend who returned it without the slipcase. Then I accidentally left it near a heat source reducing the tape to unplayable garbage. I searched high and low for a new copy. Today I just happened to think about it and here it is on DVD! Hooray for Countryman. A big up! Buy it, enjoy it, and go native with a Red Stripe or some lambsbread so you can understand the dialog. Right on.
B grade plot but A grade Rasta magic
For serious fans of Reggae, Rasta, Jamaica and natural mysticism Countryman is well worth viewing. Unfortunately the plot and style is kitsch '70s, a little B grade even.
What saves it is the wicked Reggae, the heart warming Rasta community and the funky shamanic magic of Countryman himself. Countryman is a groovy natural mystic. There is some good acting from some of the Jamaicans and some appaling acting from the two white actors!
