Rules:
Tales From the Hood (1995) and Tales From the Hood 2 (2018) were both directed by Rusty Cundieff and written by Rusty Cundieff and Darin Scott. They're horror comedies (Cundieff would go on to direct many of the sketches from Chappelle's Show (2003) so those might be good options if you want a palate cleanser after more serious fare.
There's also a third 'Tales From the Hood', but I haven't seen it, so I can't speak to its quality, but it's got the same creative team.
The original and remake of Candyman are phenomenal
That's a good rec. Thanks!
I enjoyed The Blackening. It's a slasher comedy.
Looking through a few, His House looks interesting. I have not watched it but it looks like it got pretty good reviews.
Interesting. I'll check it out. Thanks!
Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror.
It's a documentary on films by or about black American culture through horror. If not interested in the doc itself, you can find lists of all the films that it talks about.
horror noire https://boxd.it/5FEyA I don't think this is a full list, but I'm on my phone and I'm not in a search groove right now.
And the doc is based on or inspired by a book of the same name.
Actually found that one looking for more info on the horror anthology of the same name, hah. Not sure it'll make the queue itself this month, but it sounds interesting. Definitely on my radar.
I found The Girl With All the Gifts through that doc and glad I did. I like post-apocalyptic scifi and it had some fresh vibes to it.
Good to know! Thanks!
"The Blackening" was phenomenal and got a nod for a sequel. Also gonna throw "They Cloned Tyrone" in there.
