81. The Blackening
from Ghost Ninja Raccoon Hosted by Cee The Creep
For #BlackWeek of All 5’s Month, we headed to a cabin in the woods with The Blackening (2023) and honestly? This might be one of the funniest horror movies we’ve covered. A Juneteenth reunion weekend goes completely off the rails when a group of friends discovers a racist board game that wants to test their Blackness… and kill them if they fail. What starts as trivia night from hell quickly turns into a fight for survival involving crossbows, secret grudges, questionable decision-making, spades, and one of the pettiest villain motivations in horror history. We get: • A horror movie where the characters are actually smart • Black trivia with life-or-death consequences • The least amount of splitting up we’ve seen thus far • The most aggressive game night in cinematic history • More spades talk than some actual family reunions So grab your cards, do not renege, and press play as we recap one of the sharpest horror comedies of the last decade. Just remember: if a racist board game asks you a question, “I watched Living Single” might be the safest answer.
