Taglines: Queen Of The Private Eyes.

Sheba, Baby movie storyline. Louisville businessman, Andy Shayne (Rudy Challenger), who owns a small financial agency which helps provide loans and credit to the under-privileged, is roughed up by a group of hired thugs, who want to send a message; sell his business to a competitor.

Mr. Shayne’s daughter is none other than the fabulous, Ms Pam Grier, and she’s not going to let anyone hurt her father, nor his business- and that includes anyone who disses her ‘just because she’s a woman’. While Sheba looks for the men (and the organisation) supporting the thugs, she also finds a sinister motive behind their actions. Sheba’s former flame Brick (Austin Stoker) adds some muscle to her mission.

Sheba, Baby is a 1975 American blaxploitation action film directed by William Girdler and starring Pam Grier, Austin Stoker, Rudy Challenger, Charles Broaddus, Dick Merrifield, Richard Merrifield, D’Urville Martin, Christipher Joy, Edward Reece Jr. and Sylvia Jacobson.

Barbara Mason sang vocals on the tracks “Sheba Baby,” “I’m In Love With You,” “A Good Man Is Gone,” and “She Did It” on the soundtrack for the film. Arrow Films released a restored Blu-ray edition of the film in 2016, which includes a new documentary (“Pam Grier: The AIP Years”) and two audio commentaries.
