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?

Chris & Kelsey awaken a 47-year-old, bitter, undead prom queen and kill their sisters to take their families! The Classic Film: Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987) "Thirty years after her accidental death at her 1957 senior prom, the tortured spirit of prom queen Mary Lou Maloney returns to seek revenge” (IMDb.com). Prom Night II was not originally intended to be a sequel to the classic, slasher original—and it basically still isn't. It's a little bit boring sometimes, but it's also bizarre and deranged in some of the best ways. For a good time, call Mary Lou. The Modern Film: Killer Prom (2020) "After losing her mother in an accident, a teenager and her father welcome a distant cousin into their home. Hoping to claim the family as her own, the psychopath hatches a devious plan to recreate the prom she never experienced” (IMDb.com). This isn't even a movie that the-one-Lifetime-fanatic-we-found-online-who-reviewed-it could love. Stilted, inelegant, and was that a Wilhelm Scream we heard? Audio Sources: "Bill Hader/Arcade Fire" (Saturday Night Live S43E16) produced by Broadway Video & SNL Studios "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show" (The Simpsons S08E14) produced by Gracie Films & 20th Century Fox Television "Killer Prom" produced by NB Thrilling Films 6 "Prom Night" (1980) produced by Prom Night Productions, et al.
