What they share
Theysit in Documentary / Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to Midnight Movies: From the Margin to the Mainstream, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror is
Decatur Street, late Sixties. A flickering drive-in screen frames a black face in silhouette. The camera rolls through a century of Hollywood, tracking how horror shorthand—mammy curses, jive-talking sidekicks, and finally unflinching lead roles—changed around the bodies of black actors. A horror doc that finally lets the shadows speak back.
