Gear up for The Blackening, a genre-bending meta-horror film arriving on digital August 15th and on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack (+Blu-ray & Digital), Blu-ray (+DVD & Digital), and DVD on August 22nd from Lionsgate.
Join seven friends as they reunite for a weekend getaway, only to fall into the clutches of a demented killer who forces them to play a deadly game for their survival.
Prepare for an exhilarating ride as The Blackening challenges genre conventions, satirically asking: “If the entire cast of a horror movie is Black, who dies first?” Don’t miss out on this thought-provoking and intense horror-comedy.
Directed by Tim Story (Ride Along, Think Like a Man, Barbershop) and featuring a screenplay and screen story by Tracy Oliver (Girls Trip, TV’s “Harlem”) and Dewayne Perkins (TV’s “The Amber Ruffin Show,” “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”), this thrilling movie stars Grace Byers (TV’s “Empire”), Jermaine Fowler (Coming 2 America), Melvin Gregg (House Party), X Mayo (TV’s “American Auto”), Dewayne Perkins (TV’s “The Upshaws”), Antoinette Robertson (TV’s “Dear White People”), Sinqua Walls (TV’s “White Men Can’t Jump”), with Jay Pharoah (TV’s “Saturday Night Live”), and Yvonne Orji (TV’s “Insecure”).
