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. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole? Presenting The Class of 1989, a new limited-run series from pop culture critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams, hosts ...

Episode 77 is a wake-up call to anyone who has managed to miss this amazing Korean horror movie, "Train to Busan”(2016). You’ve missed your stop. Get the next train going back and jump right into this one! Your hosts will assure you that if you (like we) had thought we’d reached “peak zombie”, we were all wrong. Just when it seemed there was little else of interest coming from this sub-genre, this train came speeding along. Sure, some elements may remind you of “The Warriors” (1979), but Richard has been saying that it has all the best stuff from “28 Days Later”. Will still wishes that one starred Sandra Bullock. Your hosts talk a little bit about the finer points of movie popcorn and Britain’s love affair with pea gravel. Look, moss is just too quiet and a skellington could simply sneak up on you! Although there isn’t any gut munching to speak of, this movie really delivers on the suspense, the scares, and emotional investment into characters you can actually care about. Don’t get us wrong, there will be blood, just not buckets full. Just asking, but would you watch a series called “Undeadbeat Dad”? He rises from the grave every other weekend to disappoint his kids. What if they cast Jerkface to play the main character? Just asking. Why do your hosts get sidetracked? Because “Train to Busan” is so good it only needs 25 minutes of raving and a high recommend! So climb aboard and hold on tight- these zombies aren’t shambling! A special mahalo to Pa'ahana for Aloha ‘Oe. Traditional Hawaiian kine rendition!
