Sinners is not horror. Jordan Peele movies aren’t scary and they were scarier than that. I enjoyed Sinners but not his magnum opus.
Come on breh,

Personally I think it was a great movie before they threw in the mystical horror stuff. I'm on the opposite side of the spectrum.The non-vampire part of the film was the best part.
Why can't we just have a period love story about black love? or the black homecoming of two Brothers? Why do we need twighlight in it? It got kinda cheesy after the music scene. (Which i thought was pretty whitty and symbolic scene until they shoehorned the vietnamese parlor thing in a black film)
Now don't get me wrong, I'm glad that Coogler made a film that wasn't the stereotypical black trauma film. I kind of agree with you that I wish it was one or the other. Either a horror/thriller film or a theatrical drama/period piece. The disconnect comes from where he tried to tie the two different movie styles together.
