I've seen some others, but can't think of the name.
There was this one where Terrance Howard was in it and I think Glenn Plummer. They along with 2 other dudes were playing cards or something...I forgot, but that was horrible!
Some of those low budgets are okay. That's how I stumbled upon Trois and Uninvited Guest.

The one with Terrance Howard and Glenn Plummer was called "Love Beat the Hell Out Of Me". I saw that one about a year ago.
Trois I liked b/c I saw the DVD version with the Directors Commentary by Producer William Packer and Director Rob Hardy. Because the two are about my age, their comments made the movie enjoyable--it was like watching it with the homies.
Uninvited Guest I gots to give props to b/c it was filmed here in Columbus, my hometown. I was told that more black films was going to be shot here in the future. But yes, it was an okay film.
Another MGT3K item to add to the list:
To Have and To Hold. A black couple on the brink of divorce must spend a weekend at a cabin in the woods without arguing in order to collect a $10 million inheritance. Can they do it?
I knew this movie was ghetto b/c the DVD had NO bonus features, not even a chapter index, so if you stop the DVD, you have to start the movie over again.
Rappin' and Rhyming: A white stockbroker become a summer school teacher for a group of inner-city black students and they are invited to a poetry exchange from an all-girls private school. Some of the poems discussed would make Walter Benton proud.
More items later.
