In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide.

As manager of Apocalypse Video, I’ve had to deal with many things; roaming mutant hordes, nuclear fallout, occasional attacks by ptera-people - but never have I dealt with anything as fiendish and insulting as what I am presented with this week. And from my own employees nonetheless.
Despite everything I’ve done for them – a short eighteen hour work day, free mildly radiated popcorn, and a generous eight hours of PTO a year -- my staff is questioning my competency as a manager by having an OSHA consultant serve me with a cognitive assessment.
Let’s just say, if this test goes my way, I’ll be cutting that PTO policy in half…
I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as I try to prove that I am, in fact, smarter than a 5th grader, are fellow cinephiles and fancy pants college graduates Jackie, Cody, and special guest: Janna (pronounced “Ya-nna”).
Listen as we discuss how John Kimble turns the once innocent Kindergarten class of Astoria Elementary School into a disturbing police state; we debate what the age cutoff would be for taking your kids to see Kindergarten Cop; and finally, we try to figure out exactly what the hell is going on between Crisp and his overbearing mother.
