Run B Run: A Black Horror Podcast

Want a good movie to check out this Saturday evening? Sit back, relax, and put on I Saw The TV Glow: a love letter to 90s nostalgia and a coming of age q***r masterpiece.

Synopsis: During an evening over his newfound friend Maddy's house, Owen watches a show called The Pink Opaque, a 90s Nickelodeon-esque (think The Secret World of Alex Mack and Are You Afaid Of The Dark) and it changes his life, significantly...

Sad that it's not up for Oscars, because it most certainly deserves it. Watch it and let me know what you thought about it! Find I Saw The TV Glow on Hulu, Prime, or you can find this, and more, in my TMSOC subscription service (inbox for more info).

Happy viewing!

Happy new year, kinfolk!

Want a new movie to watch? Here's the first recommendation of the year: Walden

Walden is about a humble court stenographer, who goes about his day doing work, and attempting to break the stenographer world record. During a trial, after hearing a horrible testimony of a child's unaliving by his father, he begins to have murderous urges. One day, while at the package store picking up an alcoholic beverage, a robber comes barging in, which becomes the catalyst for his rage to surface...

Ngl, this film is a very slow start, but it's worth the patience. Think of this as Dexter, if he was a court stenographer, and everything will make sense. Despite the slow start, I really enjoyed this movie once the story started unfolding, and I didn't see the ending, nor the ultimate culprit coming at all...which was a pleasant surprise.

But don't take my word for it; you can purchase it on Amazon Prime and check it out!

Enjoy!

When I think of Black men surviving horror movies, I automatically think of Kincaid from Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.

Dream Warriors already has a special place in my heart, with the line "it's primetime, bitch", (uttered by Freddy as he kills one of the teens by putting her head through a TV) but what I really loved is Kincaid surviving. Sure, he eventually gets got in the next movie, however, he survived his first film, and he was so badass!

"Let's go kick the motherf**ker's ass all over dreamland."

I used to abhor Nicholas Cage and his acting...until I watched Day 10's pick: Mom and Dad

This film is about a world under siege, when the TVs and radios start transmitting an odd static...that turns parents murderous towards their kids. It's like the rage virus from 28 Days Later, and we get to see the movie's core family go from loving and nurturing, to insanely murderous, and the kids fighting for their lives...

If you're looking for a resolution in this movie, there's not one. It's open ended, but that's the point of this dark horror comedy. But the best part is Nicolas Cafe ranting, raving, and raging throughout the movie. This movie, along with other indie releases he's starred in since, has made a super fan out of me. Selma Blair also was acting her ass off as a deranged, hysterical mother, seeking to terrorize and end her children's lives. It was a fun watch...

But don't take my word for it; check it out on Hulu or Amazon Prime.

Day 9 of 31 Days of Horror is a dark comedy sure to please: Who Invited Them

This film is about a couple who, upon throwing a housewarming, deals with the intrusion of some uninvited guests. The uninvited couple claim to be neighbors just dropping by to join the festivities, and soon, the drinks are flowing, and everyone is having a great time. The hosting couple decides it's time to wrap things up, but the neighbors become pushy and adament on wearing out their welcome...and everything goes downhill from there...

Im not a fan of more horror comedies, unless they're dark...and this one is pretty damn dark, so I enjoyed it immensely. It's one of the best Shudder Originals released, and is slept on, but it's a fun dark ride nonetheless.

But don't take it from me; check it out on Shudder.
