The Black Guys on White Movies Show
Join me, Aaron Covington, the co-writer of CREED, to talk about white movies. What is a white movie? It's simple! Movies made for and by white people. In America that's a vast majority of the movies! I am often joined by my good friend and cinephile Bernard Harris and in our movie reviews we ask one important question of these films and that is "How white is this movie?"
The Black Guys on White Movies Show
How white is A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) and the insecurity of suburban life
We tackle Freddy head on, but not in our dreams, on a podcast.
What's up with the trend of 80s horror being set in the suburbs? What darkness lies beneath perfectly trimmed lawns? We talk Wes Craven and how he parodied himself into another franchise with scream and got parodied by the Wayans brothers into yet another franchise. Is he the franchise king?
And we wonder how the suburbs is the perfect place to stage horror. The false sense of safety is the perfect backdrop and how these horror psychopathic characters are metaphors for the very human depravities that happen in those communities.
