Watch with an open mind

Rating: 9/10 (11 February 2018)

I've seen mixed reviews about this movie. Some people loved it while others consider it to display an extreme standpoint of systematic racism. To me, its a well-made horror movie with subtle comedic moments. The perspective, although exaggerated and unrealistic, is fresh and unique. Its a break from typical horror movies and there are great symbolic references through the visuals, dialogue and soundtrack. There is great depth to the scenes and I realized this after reading the IMDb trivia section (avoid it if you haven't watched the movie yet).
The plot was quite predictable but I was impressed by the way it was executed. The dialogue contains great meaning and provides us an insight into the stereotypes that human beings have to live with everyday. And lastly, it was refreshing to see the black guy actually surviving till the end of a horror movie.
