In this extended episode, I break down every aspect of Sinners that I can for the time 'allotted.' Join me in this in-depth dance with the devils we know and those we don't.
Ryan Coogler blessed us with Sinners this Easter Weekend and in this episode I will give you a spoiler free review of the movie before breaking it down in the next episode. So if you're still on the fence (for some reason) to go see Sinners, this episode is for you.
In this episode I finally bring myself to watch and review a movie I initially was ecstatic over, but dreaded to finish when I started watching. I had words... But does that mean to skip this one? Not really.

The man who introduced me to fear and horror, Freddy Krueger, is 40 and I have a few words to say about it.
Hell isn't around the corner, it's already here...

Slashers in a cornfield?! Count me in as I review (and gush over) Adam Cesare's instant horror classic Clown in a Cornfield.
It’s 12 Midnight somewhere. Do you know if your dad is a former horror teen idol turned smug serial killer?
Alien: Romulus subverted expectations and won me over immediately. In this episode, I breakdown the movie, its callbacks to other films, and where the franchise should go next.
In anticipation for Alien Romulus opening this week, I decided to take a look and recommend the six short films that were released back in 2019 for the 40th anniversary of Ridley Scott's Alien. These short films are indicators to where the franchise should venture into next post Romulus and truly come into its "anthology" identity.
You can find the short films on YouTube here.
This week I discuss, not really "review," Deadpool and Wolverine and if it really shook up the MCU's status quo; also while I thoroughly loved it, did it cater to the toxic white male fanbase's critiques?
In this episode, I interview Black gay comics pioneer Rupert Kinnard, who created Cathartic Comics and the groundbreaking Black queer comics characters Brown Bomber and Diva Touche Flambe. We discuss his art, the history of BB and Diva, and the upcoming Kickstarter campaign for "OOPS! I Catharted! 50 Years of Cathartic Comics," which is his complete collection of comic strips throughout his career. Please share and donate to the Kickstarter.
Recapping my first trip to BlerdCon and how it and Washington, D.C. don't owe me anything.
