 On this episode we look at a genre and a sub-genre within that - Blaxploitation horror films! Blaxploitation was a genre that existed for only a short time in the 70s, but had a major impact. Together with our guest, Lord Blood-Rah, we'll discuss the origins of the genre and then take a look at several horror films that spun out of it.Blacula (1972) is probably the best-known of these films, and it's a well-done vampire story. William Marshall plays Prince Mamuwalde, who is turned into a vampire by Dracula himself. He awakens in modern day (1970s) Los Angeles and discovers what he believes to be his reincarnated wife. Of course, carnage ensues! It's a terrific, even scary film and you should see it if you haven't.It was followed up the next year by Scream Blacula Scream, which saw Blacula brought back to unlife by means of voodoo. Blacula once again stalks LA, but he tires of being a vampire and seeks a cure via voodoo priestess Pam Grier. Definitely the most unusual of the films we cover is Ganja and Hess (1973), which has been described as an experimental horror film or an art film. Whatever you want to call it, it is in a category all its own. The creation of writer/director Bill Gunn (who also acts in it), it tells the story of Dr. Hess Green, who is an expert on the ancient Myrthian people of Africa, who drank blood. He gets a new assistant who is completely insane and attacks him with a Myrthian artifact, which turns Hess into a vampire himself. Eventually Hess begins a relationship with Ganja, the wife of his former assistant, and she too becomes a vampire. The film is extremely moody and stark. Duane Jones, best known for his role as Ben in Night of the Living Dead, plays Hess.We follow these up by looking at Abby (1974), a take on The Exorcist, Sugar Hill (1974), a zombie revenge flick, and last but certainly not least, Rudy Ray Moore's Petey Wheatstraw, The Devil's Son-in-Law (1977), where the Dolemite actor takes on Satan himself. Certainly a variety of films to choose from!For our Sensor Sweep, Commander Larry shares a very appropriate book: Horror Noire: Blacks in American Horror Films from the 1890s to present by Robin R. Means-Coleman. This tome takes a deep look at the history of African Americans in horror films, and how their roles changed over time. There's also a documentary of the same name. Check it out!Don't forget, you can catch Lord Blood-Rah on LordBloodRah.com. There you can find links to his long-running series, Lord Blood-Rah's Nerve Wrackin' Theater, as well as his podcast, his Patreon series, and more. If you're in the San Francisco Bay Area, he will be hosting live sci fi and horror movies at the Orinda Theater every 3rd Saturday night of the month at 9:30 -there's a full bar too!  Creature Features day is a daylong celebration of  the original Bay Area Creature Features hosted by Bob Wilkins and later John Stanley, and will be held on April 24th at the Orinda Theater.

It's October and the INAPC sisters are back to pay homage to a history of black horror. This time we reference the 2019 documentary Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror based on the 2011 non-fiction book Horror Noire: Blacks in American Horror Films from the 1890s to Present by Robin R. Means Coleman, PhD. From the 1915 film The Birth of a Nation to the present, the relationship between black Americans and the horror genre has been a roller coaster. So strap in for a ride!

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the  2020 film Antebellum.Episode Highlights: We explore what we see as the film's biggest issue: structural problems that created not only a disconnect between the film's three acts but also prevented the film from being able to clearly articulate its true source of horror. Looking at the film's attempt to be a social horror piece à la Jordan Peele, we argue that Antebellum ultimately played it too safe and simple and, in the process, failed to fully speak to the systematic and systemic evils of racism, inequality, and injustice at its core.A Dose of Scholarship: We have said it before, but we'll say it again...check out Robin Means Coleman's excellent book Horror Noire: Blacks in American Horror Films from the 1890s to Present!

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Anthony Tresca discuss the 1992 film Candyman.Episode Highlights: We discuss the reasons that we like this film almost despite itself and how the film rises above (and fails to rise above) being a product of its times. Looking at the character of Helen as proof of Robin Means Coleman's claim that this is a film celebrating white womanhood, we talk about Helen as an entirely unlikeable but fascinating character. And we explore the ways that this film uses boundaries to articulate ideas about intersectionality, race, and socio-economic status.  A Dose of Scholarship: We cannot recommend highly enough Robin Means Coleman's excellent book Horror Noire: Blacks in American Horror Films from the 1890s to Present. In this episode, we also discuss the intriguing essay by Adam Ochonicky, which looks at adaptive issues between "The Forbidden" and Candyman.Twitter/Instagram: @NightmarePod1; Email: suchanightmare.pod@gmail.com

In the spirit of Spooky season, Skye and Amanda sit down to discuss the Black Horror genre and its depictions of the biggest terrors we face day-to-day. The ladies talk about the thrilling novel, When No One is Watching by Alyssa Cole and the movie, Vampires vs. The Bronx, both horror stories about a true life fear; gentrification. They gush about the genius of Lovecraft Country and the realities that Black people face when uncovering who the real monsters are in their lives.

For Part 1 of our long-awaited conversation on Black Horror we are joined by Kristina Leath-Malin. As an academic, filmmaker and feminist horror scholar, Kristina's MA on French Horror and the "New Wave Extremity" culminated with her thesis-turned-published book Objectification repackaged: The Women of 21st Century French Horror. Her current work at https://myfinalgirl.com/ and documentary project My Final Girl: Black Women in American Horror includes a web/podcast series, video work, and an internet database dedicated to exploring the positioning and representation of Black Women in American Horror Films. Together we discuss the documentary Horror Noire (on SHUDDER), and look at a cross section of seminal films in black horror. You can find Kristina's video work and podcast here: https://vimeo.com/plzwatchAnd her writing on film here: http://KLMBrooklyn.com

The excellent new documentary, HORROR NOIRE: A HISTORY OF BLACK HORROR, is a love letter to the rich, powerful history of Black American artists in horror cinema. The story is told by the artists who made the movies, and they give their unflinching perspectives on the past, present, and future of black horror. Join me as I speak with Executive Producers Dr. Robin Means Coleman and Tananarive Due about their documentary, Black horror, and their "First Kisses" with horror! Dr. Coleman is currently the Vice President and Associate Provost for Diversity, and a Professor in the Department of Communication at Texas A&M University. She has also written many books about media and the cultural politics of Blackness, including the book that is the source material for this documentary. Tananarive Due is a filmmaker, author of 12 novels and educator steeped in black horror and Afrofuturism. Since 2017, she has been teaching a class at UCLA called “The Sunken Place.” Inspired by the movie Get Out, the class delves into the century-spanning history of black horror.

Welcome to another episode of Carolyn Talks!Based on the book Horror Noire: Blacks in American Horror Films from the 1890s to Present, by Dr. Robin R. Means Coleman, directed by Xavier Burgin, co-written by Ashlee Blackwell, and executive produced by Tananarive Due, Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror is a documentary that looks at the depiction of Black people in over a century of horror movies.The film is essential viewing for everyone who loves film, and not just the horror genre, because it gives the perspective of actors and directors about their experiences, and how film impacts the lives of Black people. Black actors and directors have always had to struggle with finding roles, and support for projects that centered the voice and experiences of Black people in film. Even in the 70s when films like Blacula was gaining attention in the Blaxploitation era, they still had to contend with racial and gender stereotyping.

We're being consumed by John Carpenter's The Thing (1982)! We discuss the upcoming Child's Play and Pet Sematary remakes, spilling imaginary tea with Lupita Nyong'o, and the state of our social media pages thanks to our latest student (ie unpaid) intern Brian! Joe gets very personal with Gus Kenworthy. Joshua goes on a rant about adaptations. We try to figure out if The Thing is about homoeroticism, the "devouring woman," or Cold War trust issues.
