The Blackening [videorecording]  Lionsgate and MRC present ; a Story Company, Tracy Yvonne, Artists First, Catchlight Studios production ; produced by Jason Clark, Marcei A. Brown, Tim Story, Tracy Oliver, E. Brian Dobbins, Sharla Sumpter Bridgett ; screenplay and screenstory by Tracy Oliver & Dewayne Perkins ; directed by Tim Story.
The film centers around a group of Black friends who reunite for a Juneteenth weekend getaway only to find themselves trapped in a remote cabin with a twisted killer. Forced to play by his rules, the friends soon realize this ain't no motherf****** game. Directed by Tim Story (Ride Along, Think Like a Man, Barbershop), this film skewers genre tropes and poses the sardonic question: if the entire cast of a horror movie is Black, who dies first?
