I Can’t Stop Thinking About The Blackening, Especially For How On Point The Horror Satire Is
Blending terror with humor is a tricky act that many filmmakers either master or fail spectacularly. Fortunately, the resurgence of horror satire in the 2010s has provided viewers with ample doses of fear and laughter, as seen in movies like Nope, Vampires vs. The Bronx, and Zombieland. However, films such as The Blackening have raised the bar for humorous critique by not shying away from poking fun at both the genre and society itself.
