Lionsgate has released a hilarious collection of character posters for their upcoming horror comedy “The Blackening”. The film comes from director Tim Story (“Barbershop”, “Ride Along”) and is written for the screen by Tracy Oliver (“Girls Trip”) and one of the films stars, Dwayne Perkins. The cast is loaded with interesting talent that includes Perkins, Grace Byers, Jermaine Fowler, Melvin Gregg, X Mayo, Antoinette Robertson, Sinqua Walls, Jay Pharoah, and Yvonne Orji.
“The Blackening” plays with the idea that the Black character is often the first to die in slasher films. The story follows a group of friends who fit the many character types that often populate these movies. The difference in this case is they are all Black. The group must overcome a comical array of well-worn horror movie tropes if they have any hope of surviving. The character posters tap into what kind of humor we can expect.
“The Blackening” releases exclusively in theaters on June 16th.
Keith & the Movies 
Across the Spiderverse is awful.
Why? Because it isn’t the Wiggles?
No, It’s worse than Avengers: Infinity War.
LOL
I’m about to find out.
1. Lashawn, Kahlil, and Pee-Wee
4. Dru Hill
6. Jim Carrey, Kelly Coffield Park, Alexandra Wentworth, Jay Leggett, and Carol Rosenthal
7. It depends on the meal. A small portion could be a side dish but with bacon and assortments, it’s a meal.
8. Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Madea’s Family Reunion, Madea Goes to Jail, Madea’s Big Happy Family, Madea’s Witness Protection, A Madea’s Christmas, Madea’s Tough Love, and Boo! A Madea Halloween.
The In Living Color one was a no-brainer for me.😁
What kid/teen from the 1990s didn’t love that show? I still watch clips of it. Jim Carrey’s Vanilla Ice parody still makes me laugh. “Alright stop, while I do up my laces.”
That skit is so good. So is Tommy Davidson’s MC Hammer.
Which one? Him doing a parody of “Hammer Time” or “2 Legit 2 Quit” as the latter is called “2 Sold Out 2 Quit” I prefer the latter…
Fame, don’t last long. Look at Vanilla Ice. He’s gone!
My all-time favorite ILC skit is Wanda in The Dating Game. Jim Carrey trying his hardest not to crack but the moment David Alan Grier gets a look at Wanda and completely loses it as he just laughed is a favorite moment.
His “Can’t Touch This” skit. Soooo funny.
That Wanda skit is hysterical. And Davidson’s reaction when he sees her!!!
“What’s wrong with you? I’m the catch of the day!” “Someone needs to throw your ass back!” “Hey, I know you ain’t tripping!” “Hey, is there a rule where it is void if we ain’t compatible?” “I have the rule book and it says, I got you and I’m ready to go!”
Sounds fun!
I’m looking forward to it.
