The Blackening is a horror comedy, directed by Tim Story, written by Tracy Oliver & Dewayne Perkins, and starring Grace Byers, Jermaine Fowler, Melvin Gregg, X Mayo, Dewayne Perkins, Antoinette Robertson, Sinqua Walls, Jay Pharoah, and Yvonne Orji. #TheBlackening
Description of the movie: A group of friends decide to celebrate Juneteenth together at a rented cabin and settle in for a weekend of spades, sugary Kool Aid, and a little harmless fun. Instead, they find themselves forced to play a game that means life or death. In a genre that often sees the Black character die first, what do you do when all the characters are Black? In this review, I also discuss how The Blackening is the same and different from Bill Posley's Bitch Ass.
