ScaryCrit: A Black Horror Podcast
ScaryCrit exists to shine a light on the often underappreciated and groundbreaking contributions of Black filmmakers, actors, and storytellers to the horror genre. From classic masterpieces to bone-chilling releases, we're here to celebrate the powerful narratives, cultural influences, and unique perspectives that define Black horror.
Whether you're a seasoned fan or new to the genre, our podcast is your guide to discovering hidden gems, exploring social commentary, and embracing the terrifying brilliance of Black folk in horror.
With in-depth analyses and behind-the-scenes insights, our podcast offers a front-row seat to the terror. Tune in every other Thursday as Lauren and Jared unpack Blackness in horror... or the lack-there-of.

Strap in, Critters! Hearkening back to our humble beginnings of super-long episodes, we've got a lot to get through this week!
After flipping through a stacked Negronomicon featuring our reviews of Velma (2023) and the premiere episode of The Last of Us (2023), your favorite horror pod hosts dust off our VCRs and press play on a true crit of David Cronenberg's Videodrome (1983). The trope for this weeks episode: body horror. Get ready for some analysis, reactions and a classic media studies analysis, because you can't say Videodrome without McLuhan.
We dropped lot of gems this week--too many to fit in the show notes, but we've got 'em all collected here. Be sure to have a look!
