Disco Godfather (also known as The Avenging Disco Godfather) is a 1980 Action film starring Rudy Ray Moore and Carol Speed. Commonly considered a blaxploitation film, the plot centers on Moore's character, a retired cop, who owns and operates a Disco and tries to shut down the local Angel dust dealer after his nephew gets "whacked out" on the drug. The Disco Godfather's trademark phrase is his encouragement of the disco patrons to "Put your weight on it, put your weight on it, put your weight on it!"
