Really insightful documentary that assembles a lot of recognisable faces from the black horror community, from the instantly recognisable Kieth David; Get Out director Jordan Peele and the Candyman himself, Tony Todd, there are a number of influential, interesting voices to be heard here who all help to paint a picture of Black characters'/actors' experiences throughout the history of the horror genre. It starts by covering Birth of a Nation, so you know from the start that you're going to hear about a lot of films from over the years, but I think it's great because there's so many I haven't heard of that I now want to see, like "Abby" and "Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight." Overall this is quite a good documentary, it's narrators are all great and a few of them are pretty funny. Everyone's familiar with tropes like the black character dying first or being a shield/sacrifice for the white character, but this documentary shows you where these stereotypes started and in some cases, how they've dissipated over time.
