Five on the Black Hand Side is a 1973 African-American comedy film based on the 1969 play of the same name by Charlie L. Russell. It was shot in Downtown Los Angeles, California. Leonard Jackson appeared as John Henry Brooks. He was cast in Steven Spielberg's The Color Purple fifteen years later.

Five on the Black Hand Side was conceived as "an antidote" to the "blaxploitation" films of the era. The film's tagline was: "You've been coffy-tized, blacula-rized and super-flied – but now you're gonna be glorified, unified and filled-with-pride... when you see Five on the Black Hand Side."
