Sinners (15)

Nominated for a stunning 16 awards at the upcoming Oscars – the most of any film in history – including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor, Sinners sees Black Panther and Creed collaborators Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan deliver a new vision of fear. Set in the pre-war South, it dances between genres, incorporating elements of folk horror, Western, Southern Gothic, blaxploitation thriller, musical and vampire movie into one superlative whole. 

“You keep dancing with the devil, one day he’s gonna follow you home.” Trying to leave their troubled lives behind, twin brothers (both played by Jordan) return to their hometown to start again – only to discover an even greater evil waiting to welcome them there.

Also featuring Oscar-nominated supporting turns from Delroy Lindo and Wunmi Mosaku, brilliantly conceptualised and crafted by Coogler, Sinners is a masterful entertainment that’s full of ideas about America’s past and present.
