“Sinners” (2025)

Reposted from Still Slaying: A Buffy-verse podcast which you can find at https://podcastica.com/podcast/still-slaying-a-buffy-verse-podcast “Blues wasn't forced on us like that religion. Nah, son, we brought that with us from home. It's magic what we do. It's sacred... and big.” Penny, Sam, Kara and Jason revel in the artistic and box office success of Ryan Coogler’s genre defying tale of family, fellowship, music, and freedom. The discussion ranges from the serious to the silly, with stops along the way for auteur theory, sports metaphors, representation, all art is political, zombie movies, sundown towns, the Tulsa Massacre/Black Wall Street, the horror genre as conduit for political and social discourse, joy as revolutionary act, A.I. and cultural appropriation, Annie as a potential slayer, oners, Alvin Ailey, and #OscarsSoWhite.    Note: Since this is an R-Rated movie, we’ve decided not to humorously bleep out the swear words.   Next time we’ll be covering Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 4, Episode 11, “Doomed.”    Keep Slaying!
