Sinners

"Sinners" (2025, dir. Ryan Coogler) stars Michael B. Jordan as twin Black brothers in the 1930s Jim Crow South, battling vampires amid sharecropping oppression and blues culture. Heavy emphasis on Black identity, historical racism, and trauma as core narrative drivers, with diverse casting (e.g., Delroy Lindo, Hailee Steinfeld). Social justice themes—segregation, white supremacy metaphors via vampires—infuse the horror, prioritizing cultural reclamation and anti-racist messaging over pure scares, though action-packed storytelling tempers preachiness. Woke via identity politics and progressive lens on Black American sins/redemption.
