Entertainment Blog #316 | Sinners [2025] : Blues and Blood in the Midnight...

Horror movies are not everyone's cut of tea, especially the bloody ones. So Not like shallow Superhero movies, these movies can't make enough turnover in Box Office most of the time. But not this time baby. This movie clinched the viewers like a storm, making the records tumble in Box Office. Seeing these news, I was eager to watch this movie until yts.mx drops a good quality Cam Copy in their site. And I'm so pleased that they did just that.

"Sinners" is a musical horror movie that was directed and written by Ryan Coogler. He's someone like Jordan Peele who mostly works with Black American actors. He mainly works with Michael B. Jordan who is non other than the main character of this movie. Other than him, there are Hailee Steinfeld, Miles Caton, Jack O'Connell, Wunmi Masaku playing roles here. Only a month into the theatre, it has already accumulated over 300$ million in box office becoming one of the highest grossing horror movies in 21st century.

Talking about that movie, it takes place in 1932 in a small town in Mississippi. It's been a long time since Smoke and Stack Moore, veteran twin brothers, returned to their village. They didn't come empty-handed. They brought a pile of cash and a truck of beer, and boy, they had plans for the town. They bought a sawmill from a man named Hogwood and turned it into a bar named Juke Joint.

So Moore brothers invited all Black people to the bar to enjoy the grand opening night with beers and beautiful blues music by Sammy the Preacher Boy and Delta Slim, the piano player. All was going really well. People were finding love, singers join with the band and the rest danced with them.... until a strange white triplet with instruments came to doorstep asking for a chance to perform in Juke Joint.

They were creepy and asking permission to enter the premises.. you know where this leads. The people who goes outside didn't come back as they were. They were different but not in a good way. And it's not just them. There's a big community outside Juke Joint telling the people in Juke Joint to join them by letting them in. So how this gonna end up. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be bloody.

It's not just the premise, the plot that worth praising in this movie. The music in this movie hits really hard into the heart. It's so beautiful. Normally horror movies are filled with horrific tones and jump scares but not this one. This is proper cinema. No wonder it had earned 97% in rottentomatoes and it deserves all of that.

"Sinners" is still available on theatres and if you are a horror fan, I think this worth 2 hours of your time. Seems like we got an early contestant for "Picture of the Year" but let see how it goes...
