Oh would you look at that? It's Black History Month!
Tales From The Hood
The film presents four short urban-themed horror stories based on problems that affect the African-American community
These are presented within a frame story of three drug dealers buying some "found" drugs from an eccentric and story-prone funeral director.
Rogue Cop Revelation: All Cops Are Bastards
Boys Do Get Bruised: A Monster that abuses a Boy in his own home.
KKKomeuppance: What you get when KKK leader David Duke runs for office and decides to move to an infamous slaver’s southern mansion, who’d rather kill than let go of his slaves
Hardcore Convert: ‘reforming’ a gangbanger with a torturous device (if 70% was good, this is the 30% I'd admit as bad; comparing gang violence to American white supremacy violence and sensory fuck ups)
This is gonna be a shot in the dark. Nonetheless, enjoy the horror and black comedy if there be.
This was directed by Rusty Cundieff, and co-written by him and Darin Scott. Let’s see, Cundieff is known for helping write Fear of a Black Hat and Chappelle’s Show.
There are more sequels, but it lacks the late Clarence Williams III, who plays the eccentric funeral director and storyteller that keeps me here.
Bad Black
A mild-mannered doctor is trained in the art of ass-kicking commando vengeance by a no-nonsense ghetto kid in an effort to regain a family heirloom from Uganda’s toughest gang.
Written, produced and directed by Isaac Godfrey Geoffrey Nabwana, known for Who Killed Captain Alex (2010), expect VJ Emmie again, not the best digital effects, but certainly the most passionate and skilled local martial arts, practical effects, and action overall. Also, hi Alan Ssali the muzungu.
This will be a good palate cleanser for that last film we watched.
Note
Honestly, I wished to have watched the first film with y’all in Halloween, but things got busy
