A biting satire about assimilation and subjugation

Reviewed by carlos-pires 7 / 10

Great horror comedy

Definitely a must-see for anyone who enjoys horror with a comedic twist.Don't be fooled by the context (African-American TV show in 1980's LA, and an African-American centric plot).This is way beyond "hood films", as I've seen some other reviewer call it (I've never heard that one before, but I instantly knew what this guy meant). Case in point: I'm a effing middle-age white european guy miles away from LA and I had a hell of a lot of fun watching this! Not only that, I was watching this and all the while saying to myself "This is so good!".I've read comments about the story, about the cast... The cast is very good, and the story, although not new, is a very refreshing take on all the tropes it feeds off of. But still, nobody mentions that this was perfectly directed and edited.In my library, this gets a place next to Ghostbusters. Well, maybe on the shelf below it, but anyway.. this is a great movie nobody will regret watching.
