Fright School

Welcome back to Fright School! This week Joshua and Joe get serious about the state of the world over the last few weeks. We discuss the complicated history of Blackness in horror through the fantastic documentary HORROR NOIRE which is absolutely REQUIRED viewing for everyone, especially fans of horror. There is so much history and analysis packed into the documentary's short time span. Black Lives Matter and more than ever we need to commit to this truth and the work of anti-racism.
