Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror

Here’s another one we’ve been a broken record about, but if you haven’t seen it yet, what are you waiting for? With carefully chosen clips and outstanding talking heads to illuminate its points, Horror Noire is like taking a mini film studies class—except with homework you’ll actually want to do, since you’ll immediately be seeking out all the movies mentioned that you haven’t yet watched. The quality of Horror Noire makes us eager for another Shudder-produced documentary in the same vein: Queer for Fear, a four-part study of the horror genre through an LGBTQ+ lens; it’s arriving in September.
