Tales from the Hood
★★★★

Watched 07 Oct 2025

Hooptober 12 | #13/34 (my list here)

A horror anthology dripping in everything you'd expect from the genre — spooky atmosphere, gnarly special effects, and disturbing sequences and stories. Yet the thing that sets it apart is the social commentary throughout. The pervasive horror of racism. It's not subtle (because racism isn't subtle in many cases) and it's necessary, even in 2025.

Hooptober qualifications:
- decade (1990s)
- a film with a black director + black lead
