Synopsis
Bloody Mama (1970) is Roger Corman's Depression-era crime drama, and you can watch online on iFILM. Across a broke and dusty America, Kate Barker turns her four grown sons into a robbery gang and drives them from one bank to the next.
Shelley Winters plays a mother whose tenderness and control are the same thing. She feeds her boys, comforts them, and steers them toward murder without ever loosening her grip. The pack includes the brutal Herman, drug-numbed Lloyd, ex-con Fred and the fellow prisoner Fred loves, all folded into one warped household. One of the sons marked an early screen role for a young Robert De Niro, years before Mean Streets. Corman shoots the holdups fast, grimy and stripped of the glamour Hollywood usually gave its outlaws.
The film loosely borrows the real Barker gang that prowled the early 1930s, but Corman cares less about the record than about a family bound by violence and need. It suits fans of hard B-movie pulp and anyone curious to catch De Niro at the very start. Stream Bloody Mama (1970) online on iFILM.
