Black Horror Movie Hall of Fame
Historically, black people's contributions to horror cinema have been hailed about as much as Donald Trump's contributions to racial unity, but there are some noteworthy figures of color from the past and present who deserve some recognition within the genre, so I've taken it upon myself to create the Black Horror Movie Hall of Fame. Feel free to tip the...

40 Horror Movies About Black-White Race Relations

The Black Die Young: The Internal Struggle of a Black Horror Movie Fan
Originally published on PopMatters.com
I have a secret passion; the less addicted of you might call it an addiction. I like to watch. I rent base, filthy movies and slip them into brown paper bags so no one can tell.

Interview with the Black Guy
Originally published on MadAtoms.com
You've seen him in every horror movie since 1984: the black guy who hangs out with a group of white people he has nothing in common with, whose only purpose, it seems, is to die first.
