We’re kicking off Black History Month with a Blumhouse Production that has taken the lead in bringing back black voices in horror. The Sweetheart 2019 release with director J.D Dillard & starring Kiersey Clemons is not just a creature feature but tells a story with political allegory and racial empowerment. Dana deep dives into the film’s special effects & talks about the Tennessee Body Farms?! Kip recounts Rafael’s own terrifying creature encounter with a bear. We also learn what chittering means and it’s icky.

Questions:

Why is it titled ‘Sweetheart’?

How many days would it take before you start talking to a volleyball on a deserted island?
