Don't Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood
'Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood' is a 1996 parody/comedy film by Shawn and Marlon Wayans. Similarly to I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, the film spoofs a number of black, coming-of-age, 'hood films' such as Juice, Jungle Fever, South Central, Higher Learning, Do the Right Thing, Poetic Justice, New Jack City, Dead Presidents, Friday, and most prominently Boyz n the Hood and Menace II Society, all primarily released between 1988 and 1995, and also mixes the names of a few of those titles to form the long title of the film. Some actors in the film also starred in the films the movie parodies, a few even in the same scenes and characters. The title fits the 5–7–5 syllable pattern commonly associated with haiku.
