So, You Like Horror? Podcast #93- Sinners


Listen Later

What's happening, friends? This week on the podcast, Sarah Beth and I wanted to talk about Ryan Coogler’s vampire tale, Sinners, set in 1932 Clarksdale, Mississippi.

Blending supernatural horror with rich historical and cultural themes, Sinners tells the story of twin brothers Smoke and Stack, who return to the Deep South to open a juke joint with stolen mob money, only to find themselves battling not just racism and family tensions, but a growing vampiric threat led by an Irish bloodsucker named Remmick. What unfolds is a confrontation between tradition and temptation, freedom and survival.

We break down the film scene by scene, from opening night at the juke joint to the tragic brother-versus-brother showdown, and reflect on its layered themes: music as cultural magic, vampirism as a metaphor for racial exploitation, and the emotional weight of grief, family, and sacrifice. Sinners offers a powerful reminder that immortality is hollow without humanity—and that true endurance lies in memory, music, and love.
